RE: cox control line planes
proptop, Great to hear that report!
Would you say that the two planes flew like identical twins or were there any subtle differences ( besides looks) between them? Did you trade places and have a chance to fly the other fellows plane? I have always wondered if there might have been any difference in flying or for that matter if one may have weighed just a tad more than the other. They seemed to be designed to be pretty equal as far as I can tell.
I also wonder what the production numbers were for each one. There seem to be far more of the ME109s than the Chippies, even on $bay you seldom see the Chipmunk. This also makes me wonder if the Chipmunk brings more money in auction.
I would really, really like to get some of those replacement wing panels and the plans that came with them. At least a copy of the plans and a method of making a reasonable facsimile of those wings.
Has anyone tried to do this? Wow! wouldn't that be something if we could! Does anyone have a copy of those plans floating around?
