Ok,
I'm posting this build with my friend Dave, this is his idea I am just the assistant!
The idea behind this build was to recreate the T-28 to be like the WWII twin fuselage Mustang!
We started the build with two T-28 fuselages,and wings, and hacked off a left wing and a right wing. Care was taken to ensure the wing was cut square with relationship to the wing and fuselage.
The next step was to create a center wing panel that would match the existing wing profile. We decided to use a Hobbyzone Supercub wing, the dihedral and wing tips were removed. This left us with 2 SC wing sections, one section was split length ways at the thickest part of the wing. the leading edge was taped into place, and the trailing edge as well! this left a gap of 1" to be filled, which was cut from the thickest part of the remaining wing section. The pieces were then removed, and glued together creating a wider wing section.
The fuselages were then jigged together, to ensure square, and the center panel was then shortened to the size we wanted.
The center wing panel was then glued inplace, and currently awaits some carbon fiber reinforcements.
It was also decided to convert to a tail dragger with steering rear wheels,
so the front landing gear was relocated towards the front, and closer in to the fuse like the twin Mustang.
We are currently awaiting the rear horizontal stab/elevator so we can fabricate a new one to fit like the twin Mustang.
