   This is a great looking rendition - you have captured the feel of it nicely imho! I believe the real world plane has a noticable dihedral for the main wings which I imagine might be a tad hard to show here (or is it just the limitation of this view?).

Thanks. Do you mean the teardrop cross-section (my first plane and I have no idea of the terminology)? I tried to capture it a bit but with the limited range of wing parts available I didn’t get it quite as much as I would like.

Actually I was referring to what could be called the “wing droop” as shown in this photo: http://www.airliners.net/open.file?id=1067390&size=M&width=1024&height=780&sok=JURER%20%20%28nvepensg_trarevp%20%3D%20%27Ghcbyri%20Gh-104%27%29%20%20BEQRE%20OL%20cubgb_vq%20QRFP&photo_nr=4&prev_id=&next_id=

(...) Wow. That plane certainly needs some Viagra(tm)... I didn't realise they drooped so much. Might be time for a version 2 I think (ps. replied to your other post at jlug). Tim (18 years ago, 25-Aug-06, to lugnet.town, FTX)
