Default RE: Typhoon

Thanks guys. Target weight is just under 10 lbs. With the 170 in the nose, weight won't be much of an issue. I find that around here, heavier planes tend to penetrate better. Well, a wing loading of about 1 lb per 100 square inches. This wing is about 930, not counting fuse area between. So a little under 10 lbs would be about right. I didn't spare the paint like I usually do, I put the coats to it. It shows.

Honestly, this thing has to be seen in person to be believed. pictures just don't do it justice. (Yeah, so I'm braggin). Hehe.
