I agree. Actually, it is quite hard to figure out exactly based on the drawings in the book. I used a 3-view drawing found on the web that is probably rather wrong. I am sure that it is not that hard to do much better than that.

Apparently, many people worked on this design. I found this very cool follow-on design while surfing the web to find documentation. This looks somewhat more "realistic" or at least less cartoonish, but maybe it has less charm because of that.

Hi Mike, it's coming together very well!

The funny thing about those stabilizer fins on the front of the plane, makes the front of the plane look like a tail section of other planes from the Top view.

Hi Michael, I know its such an odly shaped airplane. I think it wound up suffering stall and flat spin issues which led to its demise in the real world!
will post more as I go!
