I'm a 15+ year pilot for Lufthansa, flying B747-400 and B747-8. I hope you're going to do a thread on whatever you're planning to design and build. Danny
Danny,
Sounds like your doing a mix of pax and boxes, is that correct?
One of my project ideas is an RV-6A. I hadn't seen a kit since Experimental Aircraft Models stopped production a few years ago. I have a friend that will probably finish his full scale build later this year or early next year. I'd like to build a scale version painted and detailed identically. I'll have good model to work from! I probably won't be ready to undertake such a project for at least a couple of years. I have some much less ambitious plans for the near future. One of the first will probably just be a slight scale-up of a PT-19 originally designed for a speed 400 electric just to build a little experience.
I did just today become aware of what looks like a beautiful RV-6 kit from Germany. A little pricey but it appears to be very well designed. Are you familiar with Speier's Modellbautreff? I don't read German but I did have the description of their RV-6 kit translated and it looks like something I'd like to tackle. I'm just not sure if it's still available.
Happy flying!?full scale and otherwise!

Welcome from the Buckeye State (although I am a Tex A&M fan)! I make trips to Ft. Wayne regularly, driving from Lima, I imagine that we could meet up and fly together sometime.
Ben,
Gary Hill (I think that's the right name; from Lima, anyway) gets over to our club occasionally. Usually for our late-August tailgate swap meet.

Had to mention "THE OHIO STATE" because Buckeye Ben said he's a Texas A&M fan? Do I need to bring up THE University of Dayton?
Go Boilers! (Well, unfortunately, they haven't gone ANYWHERE recently! Maybe next year?)
