Ringmaster question

[Dan Grill]

I was dusting off my Hallmark airplane ornaments and I noticed that the Culver Cadet looks like a Ringmaster. Anyone else ever notice that?

[Gerald Arana]

No. Not even close. What have you been smoking/drinking?

 Um, no. 

 

[Dan Grill]

Really? Look at the elevator, general wing shape. Matt could have chosen a simple hershey bar wing but chose to do an easier to build version of an elliptical wing. AND no I don't drink!

[Don Chandler]

Maybe a little similarity in the tail section but otherwise a completely different airplane.

[Steve Helmick]

Ummmmm…..no, not even the horizontal tail is more than vaguely similar, and there you're comparing an ellipse to an oval.  Steve

 Oh yeah, I see the similarity now, the engine is on the nose, the wing is just behind that, the landing gear is on the bottom, and the tail surfaces are, well, on the tail.

Ringmaster Sportster maybe?

I really don't appreciate smart ass comments.

I really don't appreciate smart ass comments.

The Culver Cadet bears a strong resemblance to the "Ringmaster Jr. Flash", except for the fuselage, wing, horizontal tail and rudder. Oddly enough, the Flash doesn't resemble a Ringmaster at all, which makes it a real mystery.  Steve

 My "smart ass" comments weren't meant to be offensive at all Dan, jeez, just poking a little fun, hence, the smiley face.

 Sorry if I hurt your feelings.

 It's a massive problem in our world today, people need to quit overreacting and lighten up.
