Rcpilot, a little off topic, but I find it hilarious how guys like you and me come up with these "crude paint drawings". Like we are drawing as neanderthals in a digital cave. Then somebody like Minnflyer comes along and blows it out of the water with his rendition. Go check out my Cor-Star 60 thread in the SPAD forum sometime. It looks like I did my graphics on an Atari 64! LOL!, Maybe an Apple 2c. Good Lord, I'm dating myself. [sm=red_smile.gif]
LOL!! YUP, thems "paint" drawings.
Nice job with viewing the JPEG pics and the editing thrown in though. I just learned how to do that last year.
I'm 36 and my hair is 45% gray already. I smoked for most of the last 9yrs. Finally quit about 4 months ago, but I think it put some years on me. Totally stupid. I didn't start smoking until I was in my late 20's.
Not like the usual kid who picks it up at 16 and then can't quit. I waited until I was over 25 to develope/nurture my nasty habits.
Oh well, I managed to quit.
I just hope I don't pick it up again next season during training nights. I'm a volunteer instructor at the club and it can be a bit stressful dealing with newbies every Thursday night for 5hrs. [

I need to find a place to get those bolts. I might prototype the design and see how it works. I'm worried about it being "floppy". I felt like the outer cabanes should seat on the wing surface kinda snug. If I jack the back end up 1/16" to get negative incidence--then the cabane won't touch the bottom surface of the wing.
