It might not need a whole 10 degrees if it was made with an airfoil which had near zero or positive pitching moment. Suggest something in between the airfoil used here: http://www.hippocketaeronautics.com/...ch=54409;image and a normal, thin, flat bottom airfoil. You might check out the airfoils in Barnaby Wainfan's Swallow. These are for a slightly swept flying wing with taper. |

yet another Great Lakes Trainer
This one's a 12 inch dime scale from David F. Duncan Co. Or at least I think it's dime scale, I don't see a year on it. Designer is L.H. Deubler. This appeared in the Jan/Feb 1995 Flying Aces News.

Thank you for the interest in my problem. The model plan in question is a 33% S2-A 80 inch span. The Clark is an S1-S at 33% with a 68.5 inch span. It is more obscure than some but I have the Clark as well. It is a fairly sophisticated plan. I actually have Toni Clarks custom ZG62 with damped mount and custom intake with SS exhaust cannister to accompany the plan. Thanks again. You have the only attempt thus far. I amazed that no one knows. Thanks again, Bill |

http://www.modelaircraft.org/files/D.pdf These guys below, and some of the AMA listings, indicate that the Jr. is 72 inches: http://www.freeflightmodels.com/ I've ordered from them before with good results, some years ago. These guys seem to have it, and they're inexpensive: http://www.co-op-plans.com/magento/i...ennyplane.html Bob Holman may or may not have it, but he's got a picture of it: Anyway, those are some of the usual suspects, but there are many more. http://www.bhplans.com/GMPg4.html |

Here are some plans scanned from the June/July 1996 Airflow newsletter. This issue was edited by Dave Stott, sitting in for Vance Gilbert.
I've included zip files, but I'm not sure they're necessary. The Flying Aces Airhopper appeared in the Jan 1943 issue of Flying Aces. It's 15 inches span as printed in Airflow. The Humdinger appeared in the November, 1934 issue of "Sportsman Aviation". Sorry about the low quality, the drawing in Airflow is pretty bad too. The last model is Comet Kit A6, the Stinson Voyager. As printed in Airflow, it's just over 12 inches span. Not sure what year this one came out. Suggest using a better prop than the all flat one shown. |
