What do I have?
Hello all,
I recently acquired an older pattern plane from a friend of mine. It has a 61 or so inch wingspan, fiberglass fuse, and I'm pretty sure epoxy was used for the layup. It has a belly pan that goes from the nose ring to the TE of the wing. The fuse has some a pretty distinct shape to it, the bottom of the fuse is grooved on either side from the belly pan to the fin post from air exits. It's a neat looking airplane. It has a Super Tigre .61 RE motor and what appears to be maybe a Macs pipe. The airplane is built straight, but needs some serious work before I fly it. I figure it'd be a fun change from 2 meter stuff, and the price was right.
If anybody has a clue what this is, and some history about the airplane, it'd be much appreciated! I apologize for the quality of the picture, it was taken on my phone. If more pictures are required, please let me know and I'll do my best to accomodate.
