    I love the use of balsa for the tail boom.
    So when is your version going to be done?
    Vintage wood is the BEST! But....every now and then a plastic missile can be quite enjoyable!

    I thought using balsa was pretty cool too. Tom, if you help me find a ~ 1:3 scale ASW-27 fuselage I'll give it a shot!

    A new facinating interview with Dick Butler and his scratch-built open-class sailplane, Concordia.

    An interview by Markus Völter, presented by Omega Tau Podcast, episode 124.
