Why Navy planes have tail hooks: after a tough day flying they hang them up to dry.

This is the extent of the build plans. I found a copyright 1950 at the bottom and I believe it! Everything is brittle, but at five cents the price was right! :)

Found this little doozy buried under a bunch of movies at a garage sale this past weekend. The wood is crap and its not all there, but there's enough of everything to make prints onto new wood! Could be a fun little project while I wait for paint to dry on the Flying Pancake.

close up of the braces I added. I'll blend them into the fuse and repaint...

trainer with wing covered and installed. On the 2nd test flight the plane cartwheeled on landing and broke the tail off, right at the rear peg. The wood is very old and brittle and that is a weak spot in the fuse. So I repaired it with some braces.

Pulled them out of the pot after about 30 min. still have to wait at least another 30 min. to demold. The waiting game. Tic Toc...Tic Toc. Don't remove too early, They will deform.
