Title: Unidentified Control Line Model
Post by: Peter Walker on March 17, 2015, 02:03:42 PM: Hi All
Could someone please assist me in identifying this model in the attached photo?
I bought it a while back from someone else, but have no idea what it is.

Yup, I woulda guessed the exact same thing. It's almost for sure a Banshee wing.

Hey, it's better than "almost maybe" isn't it?

Post by: Tim Wescott on March 18, 2015, 08:25:16 PM: Wing chord looks a bit narrow for a Banshee. The Banshee had an overall chord (flaps and ribs) of around 10 1/2 or 10 1/4 (if someone has one maybe they could measure?), for a fairly low aspect ratio. So unless the wingspan is significantly stretched -- I dunno.

Post by: Mike Anderson on March 19, 2015, 07:19:26 AM: Banshee doesn't have a tapered wing or a swept leading edge, which this model APPEARS to have. My guess is someone's TLAR
