Was having picture upload issues...........

CavaryC: I reread your intentions. I have a feeling this is more for nostalgia and the "what if". Another buddy of mine built one the same time that I did and kind of a little competition. On the two ducts on the sides of the outer center of the fuse, he sheeted the interior bulkhead wholes making a true duct, thinking it would go faster. We never knew, because he never flew it. It was tedious and added a lot more weight. If you do a single center fan and maybe make cheater holes on the interior wall would be another option. The biggest issue will be there isn't much room in the wing saddle area for the fan. Unless some how it was behind the wing.
