I just ordered the three view from John Ponds service. I wanted to scratch build a "standoff scale" - actually, the way I build, probably "stand wayyy off scale" park flyer. 1/9 scale would be a 42.33 inch wingspan. Looks doable.

thanks, enut!! I glommed all over that info, got all the build threads, pics etc. Will be a big help. Emailed the author for how to purchase his short kit. Will not build that kit since it is a 1/12 scale and 31 inch wingspan is shorter than I want, but will use the plans, ect. I want to build 1/9 scale, 44 in wingspan, 36 inch fuse.:)
