Default Lockheed X-35/A or B or C

Hi Rceris,

Although not impossible, building a model from 2D top/side/front views requires lots of trail and error to produce correct contour for smooth surface.

I hired a CAD operator (and also learning hard myself) to draw the X35 in 3D, which allows us to amend and 'loft' the surface for preview. Also, I need my friend in States (now running Oakdaleaircraft.com to market the X35), a 3D model expert to get all things done.

I know Oakdaleaircraft will produce a CAD print plan with formers which should help your construction.

Cheers. Aldous.
