That is good news indeed. As I suspected not all parts are shown full size. The most important ones for this model are full size but not all.

If anyone out there wants a good helping of many of the Scientific "hollow log" type planes check out the Blackhawk models website. The hardware in these kits are complete down to the leadouts! They are licensed by Walter Musciano himself. He designed them.
There have been a number of contests featuring these and original Scientific kits.
