Default Really love your model...a;0

Hay Bill;

I've loved airliners all my life, and considered building more. I would love plans or a kit in the 100" range. There is a Connie at 134", a Don Smith plan, but just to big for me. Also Don Smith's model will need four .60's to fly, and I seek models in a smaller scale. I do not know of any smaller kits or plans for airliners other then the DC-3, and though a great airliner, it's been well modeled over the years, with no other airliners being drawn up or kitted that I know of. !00" wing span would give you .20 to .40 power options and just big enough to have a good wing, and small enough to fit into my VW Bus hobby mobile. I've a DC-3 kit to build and a sport multi I am building now...god I love the sound of multi glow engines turning.

By the way did you do the honors on the first flight of your beautiful DC-6B, and if you did...were your knee's knocking much...

A great looking model and please post more pictures, maybe a little larger in size, and with landing gear up, and down. By the way did you install wing flaps?

My best always,
