Title: profile junker
Post by: Gary Anderson on May 01, 2007, 06:51:15 PM

Hi Bill, this is one of my scratch built junkers. I built a shark 45 wing, Mr Cuttingham fuse and kind of a chipmonk tail section. Was just having fun, fly well, weighs 46 ounces with an os max 40s. One of these days I'll finish painting her. Mainly just trying to see if I can post the picture the proper way.

 For a "bitsa" it certainly looks like a nicely proportioned model.

 Cheers, Rob.

HI Gary,

I have to like a guy who has "Junkers" that look that nice! y1

With the Shark 45 wing and a MoBest (??) fuselage, it is at a great weight at 46 oz.  It's always nice when you cancome up with something like that, ain't it! ;D

Thanks guys for your nice comments. It has a four inch bellcrank, adjustable lead-outs and ball joint connectors. The flaps are a copy of the magnum. I was afraid it wouldn't fly. In my younger days, after we would crash a plane or two. We would put parts together from what we hadn't ruined. Try to balance the junker and go crash again. Of coarse is toy was a scratch built from different ideas. I planned on using a la 46 but at the weigh, figured an old os 40 should fly her. I going to try to attach a picture of my shark, in frame work. I'm using a st 60 for this baby. Any way thanks again and please don't correct my English, just laugh at it. Gary
