RE: How many squares would you say...
DB,
Thanks for the reply and recommendations.
I was hoping for a ten-ounce OA weight. So a 200 sq. in. wing would produce a nice wing loading (i'll do the exact math later).
I intend to cover it with laminating film with floral spray on the 'glue' side for a reduced weight, semi-transparent look. So I expect my target weight isn't too optimistic.
I have been unable to take enough time with TurboCad to be able to draw even the most rudimentary top view. So I stick to the stubby pencil on 1/4-square paper. If I want to change scale Mr. Kinko has proven to be quite accommodating.
Thanks again for the input. I DO appreciate it!
