Hello! Al suggested I add something to this so here is an item I though would be of interest. When Al says the plane is 40% scale, he is serious. I keep thinking why the plane looks so big along side other 40% planes. Here is the items I was able to pull up and calculate. These guys are right on the money. Using wingspan as determining the scale (at least that is what they used to do at the TOC):

26 ft 3 inches, equals 26 times 12 plus 3, equals 315 inches.

125 divided by 315 equals 40 percent scale.

Also some great pictures at these sites, for different color scheme ideas.
