I also add some area to the tail.

Good to know. Was it difficult to come up with the ribbing?

Well it was always on traditional balsa models so I figured it could be applied on foam board aircraft. Tried it on a few models and it worked great.

It makes the build look really scale. Will any more ribs be added before skinning?

Just checked out your B-17. Very cool. I never thought I would consider a multi-engine bomber......I am now!

I would try my C-47 first before a major project like a b-17.

Are the pieces that you used to skin the plane on the plans?

Beautiful! How do you design your dihedral and polyhedral wing fold-overs in CAD? Do you guess or do you calculate somehow the curve in the edge of a wing piece?

Do you have the plans for the paper skin you covered it with?
