I grew up in Naperville, IL which is the home of the 6 plane T-34 Mentor Lima Lima Flight. They do aerobatic and formation flying demonstrations at airshows around the country and world. I used to love seeing them practice their formation flying up over head.
I ran across a picture of them doing a demonstration on memorial day yesterday and was inspired to take a 3 view and setup a swappable for it. It's not perfect scale (I didn't do a curved turtledeck or canopy yet for V1, but maybe in V2)
Stats:
Length: 29 5/8"
Wingspan: 39 3/8"
Targeting a similar all up weight to the FT Mustang
Once I get it built, I'll be doing a yellow paint job on it to match the paint scheme to match the flight team, and i'm even thinking about doing some vinyl graphics for it. Once I see how it flies and if any adjustments are needed I'll post the plans, until them I'll keep up this thread as I build it.
