RE: Pfalz DIII resources -- Photos, Drawings, Plans, etc.
I haven't really thought this through at all yet. Weight is definitely a concern. No point making it scale if it's going to weigh a ton! This is where the fact that we're building FLYING models and not just static mock-ups keeps up honest! If i do decide to do the fuse with authentic construction style I'd want to be constructing a VERY light shell. Possibly two layers of 1/64th ply then cover with something like Sig Koverall and dope. I might do some strength tests first.
I imagine I'd be using just plain cartenters glue as CA doesn't bond ply well.
BTW, another problem with the Polapink plans is that the curve of the center cutout seems a little "flat" compared with the lines in the Datafile drawings.
