Lunch was good as usual.  I have the ribs developed and most of the drawing work is done.  Need to install jig holes and slots in the ribs, but it is coming along well.  Here are the attachments for the fuse and wing sheets as they stand right now.  No call-outs, but you can see what it looks like.  Gittin' there...

The Razorback will follow immediately.  Very easy mod, just alter the rear formers and fin a little.

Gentlemen,

Not making much progress.  Too many other jobs with higher priority.

The next step is to Silkspan the fuselage.
Then to install the flaps and elevators.

Larry,
The original P-47 for the Brazilians was almost exactly the size of the Impact and has a very similar airfoil.  Could almost say it is an Impact in drag.  Holler if you want to electrify it.  This little beastie would have a lot of room in the nose for batteries, etc.  Cowl flaps to let out the heat, etc.  Could be a good subject.  Of course, you would need to find help for the electric stuff, above my pay grade.  Get in touch if you want plans, parts.  You know where to find me.
