SKYLARK 1: 6th SCALE

Back now to the rear end...

Back now to the rear end...

Ahem...Aileron time now: built flat on the board with a straight edge against the aileron LE. The diagonals are drawn long and are fitted 'on the job' (No, Cliff!) to allow for the angles involved...

Back to the rear end (proctologists R us)

Not much left to do to the airframe, now...

[chris williams]

A few little jobs: sort the skid; recess the wing bolts; yet another decalage check...

[chris williams]

That's about it for the airframe: in line with my previous 6th scale models, the Skylark will be entirely covered from my diminishing stock of HK film...

Looks great Chris, and a very manageable size.
Do you remember Keith Humber’s model of the Prefect, built to a larger scale and available as a Radio Modeller plan? I think I have the original magazine feature if you’re interested. I remember it had a very chunky, and possibly scale wing section.
I’ll look forward to seeing yours in the air. Happy ironing.

Thanks for the offer Roger, but already I have moved on to the next project...!

That's about it, then...had a chance for a maiden a couple of weeks back, but Motters forgot to pack the wings!
