Thanks IE, that sounds like a workable solution here. Yes, FWs' plane got me going on this one.....but this one is so far from scale that is where the comparison ends. Being a belly lander, I want to keep the nose of this one from tearing off, but good landing technique with a light plane is the best strategy instead of building a heavy lawn dart. I was torn between the traditional foam/balsa sandwich and just plain F/G over foam, then paint. The jury is still out, all this painstaking touch up work on the glass will take at least an hour, then there will be primer/sanding sessions to fill the weave. It still isn't too late to cut the foam fuselage out and chunk it up into bulkhead stations and build a traditional "boat style" fuselage out of balsa.
