I know Jack Bale had some plans, but I think they were 1/12 or 1/10th scale.

You do realize the 1/5th is 120" ws and the 1/6th is about 100" right?

Evil Merlin,

Thanks for your reply.1/10 is too small but I guess I could scale it up to 1/5 scale. This is for a combat re-enactment for the Airshowteam on Ford Island in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Do you know how to get a hold of this guy with plans? I`ll be standing by ..

Thank you

Cimara,

Thanks for your reply. I have this info and I think if all else fails I will have to scale this up. But I am hoping to avoid all that work. I was hoping someone had a proven and flying design that I could just run with...In the meantime I`ll keep looking..

The TBD has been on my "someday" list since I read Gay's "Sole Survivor" as a kid. The biggest plans I could find are 1/8....

Wagon1,

Thanks for your reply..Guess for now I`ll have to order the 1/8 scale plans and work out the enlargements as 1/8 is just not going to do with all the 1/5 and 1/4 scale warbirds performing. I`ll keep you all posted....
