Default F105 Thunderchief

Hello group, I have been away from R/C for fifteen years. I recently started looking at what is now available online. I am amazed at the changes.

I am wanting to scale up Steve Bage's F105. The plans I have show a wing span of ten and a half inches. I would like to scale this model up to around thirty six inches in span and put a electric motor in the nose. "prop jet"

Can anyone direct me to a thread that will help me calculate what motor and prop I would need for the wing area I am planning?

I would also like to know why most prop jets are pushers and not tractor?
My guess would be CG issues.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Steve
