Fred Q. asked me to cut a bigger wing for the Streak III.  We ended up with a 54in, span 550 sq.in. wing.  That's about 10% more than the original.

The new wing has 606 squares(could easily go to 650 squares with even longer foam extensions).
It can't go much bigger without rebuilding the foam cutter or using some tricky cutting techniques.

The stab is 24 x 5in,  just under 20% of the wing.  It should fly the wing just fine.

The attached picture is a Streak III modified to a F9F Panther, semi-scale profile. Scott Woodham built in 2007.  It looks Great!
