I've done this scheme, by hand, 4 times. . The colors, pinstriping, number of checkerboards .. EVERYTHING . .is PERFECT. Add in that the lines of the plane are very close to scale, and this is one beautiful bird!! ! Only thing out of place is the aerobalanced elevators, since Patty's plane didn't have them, but other than that. . . a fantastic job.

I have a SIGNED 35% bust of Patty. . .would look realy good in a plane like that. .

Ah yes. In my haste, I missed the "sx" after the 300.

Congratulation for your new bird

I would apreciate if you can measure the distance between the wing tube and the bottom of the fuse to see if it's possible to fit a long KS tuned pipe (3'' diameter, 30'' long) UNDER the wing tube socket.

I think a super ZDZ-80 on tuned pipe would perfect..
