Right, well then . Where were we . . . .
YES , the ' Little Sketch / General Arangement , dimensioned Drg. is what I am after / wish to VIEW .
The Scorpio There has a 11 1/2 - Root , 9 1/2 Tip Chord ( Mainplane not inc flaps )
The Remark quoted , re Schaffer / Scorpio Variant = Hallmark , depending on taken literally - or more broadly . . .
Using about TEN differant pictures of the Hallmark , pencils , rules , grids etc . . . essentially
throw onn a 3/4 top block fwd , aft of canopy the rear deck as dead on ( minus dorsal fillet )
The Rudder is the exact same height , lower sides angle matches through to engine bay , etc etc .
as an aside , B ill seems to have slipped with the template / dimension at the wing root ,
giving about 1/32 drop / assymetry - on the templates And Fuse Side View .
But as it was drawn from a template ? or with a curve , it dials back in , once figured .
Also the root template matches the fuse side , not the C/L . In Plan .
Then if the TE was 1/4 not 3/8 , the plan matches templates .
With 6 & 8 inch to spar from rear , and 3 in spar to L E . bar on the curve the 3 in is inner edges .
As He shows 3" sheet . You'd probly need the plan in front of you to follow this .
As for ' getting to com-plicated
BUT , , The Idea is to get a EXACT plan . If Simons Statement is correct ,
from here , as from Bob's Articals / Writeings , Simons & Schaefer were good mates / buddies , at the Time -
Joint / Cross Development seem not unusual or unlikely . Such as Shareing Drawings .
AS STATED , give the Scopio Drg a does of Twink , throw the canopy at T E , Round The Rudder , and it matches .
Whereas the PAMPA one seems decidedly out . half the rudder hight , canopy off etc .
Apparently the ORIGINAL AEROPLANE ( Hallmark ) Still Exists , but havnt got a reply from aledged Holder of it .
THUS any FACTUAL information , such as are those wing letters std 2 1/4 in tall , or 2 1/2 . or 2
,
using prportions angles etc , base dimensions can be figured . particularly as most got to 1/2" redilly , 1/4 more rarely , 1/8 more so still .
So ' things start to emerge ' archeologically
once a few things are established .
==================================================================================
Id aleways been under the impresion it was 60 span , 60 Oz. the max a ST 46 would comfortably carry .
( Tho mine doesnt mind 65 Oz and 64 span , in the wind it does . or wont . )
SO The Drawing I recall would save a awfull lot of conjecture .
Bob ( Hunt ) Do you carry notebooks , or have labled templates - tho presuming the name came AFTER construction
the likelyhood of the template having Hallmark postscribed would mean notable attention to order .
no offence intended .
Theres a few personal recollections with individuals ' leaping out of the ethers ' in ' the dream time ' back then regarding this plane ,
hence the inclination to do one ' Authentic .'
------------
As the Sketch in M A N is the only reasonably dimensioned eveidance im aware of available , Ve Vish to get to zee bottom of zee case !
p.s. will try post a photo of the amended plan tomorrow, but the camera seems to go over the 1000 pixle thing . and controls not
Voice ACTIVATED .
