I split the difference & made mine 40". I thought the 44 looked a bit out of proportion but wanted a little extra span to reduce the loading. From memory it was one extra rib bay each side.

Agree, can build off that plan for sure.
As Jim said, laminate the lower longeron from 3/32 X 3/16th, extend the wooden engine bearers into F3.......and if it's not RC you need a DT.......they fly very well.

> laminate the lower longeron

Better still - upper and lower!

Re the fuel used in model diesels,
A mixture of Ether, Kerosine and castor oil is required, for the Mills a mix of equal parts of the 3 is the useual.

Right...got it !

Thanks CC...should be able to make that cocktail OK, and probably lift the roof off the shed.

Thanks

Thanks a lot Heinz...thats really great !

Thanks so much for this, been wanting the article for ages. It's easy enough to build without it but there's always something you can't quite "see" on the plan alone.

There is also an article in Radio Control Model Flyer 0ct 2005 featuring the build of two Tomboys for radio assist from kits : I can scan and upload if it's useful?

Sahf'end on't mud? Some happy times at the Kursaal .. guess that dates me
