Thanks Chuck for checking in, let me know if you find anything. It wouldn't happen to be "Scale in Hand" would it? Pink and white cover? If so, I have the book somewhere around here.

Warbird lover, I was looking at that site earlier today while searching around and it's not bad. I'd really like something written by someone with a few known credentials in the modeling community. Also, something that goes into some detail regarding what is an acceptable wing loading for different types of models at different scales. I realize I may be asking for too much here but it can't hurt to try! Thanks for your help.

Chad,

Yes that's the one. Great book (a little out dated by now) but still some good info. Let me know if you still need my help.

Chad, may you want to look here too...just some additional info.

Chuck,

I'll dig out my copy of the book and see what it says. Thanks for the reminder about this particular resource.

G-Pete,

Thanks for the link, I'll have a look around the site.
