Reality check
« on: March 27, 2010, 09:29:04 PM »
I've had a number of enjoyable comments about how realistic my Jenny looks. They got me to thinking that it would be cool to see some others' pictures that show their models realistically. So come on Alan, Chuck, Clancy and everbody else. Show us the picture that makes your model look like the real thing.

Regards to all,

I do not have a GOOD picture of my C-7A Caribou that I flew at the 1985, 1986 and 1988 NATS.  There are pictures of it in flight in some issues of Model Aviation back then in black and white.

Model was 76 inch WS, 15 lb 4 oz weight, two HP40's, controls were right engine throttle, left engine throttle, full span double slotted flaps, retracts, cargo doors, cargo drop, nose wheel brakes.  I've got the NATS trophies to back it up.  LOL

Here is a comparison of my model to the Prototype.
