Just when I think I'm going to get to bed at a decent time (for me) someone posts a link to a 500+ message thread on a 24 foot wingspan foamy :D

Enjoy Jon...
I take it you did starte with the first thread on the post. Apparently that board has a limit of 500 posts per thread and has moved to its #2 thread.
The kid building it just got back to college from Christmas break. He couldnt fit it in the mini van in pieces so he hasnt been able to work on it for 4 weeks but is now starting back on it. He's getting real close to having it finished...
Here are some comparison graphics some of the posters of the thread have included.

Talk about Fanfold Overcast!
Yeah I did at first, then start scanning the rest of the pages. Can't wait to see video of it fly, bookmarked the thread. A biplane would be nice ;)

Actually, it has taken him almost 6 mos to do it. He is a full time college student...brouse throught the threads and you can see the cans of tuna and Coke holding the wings together as they are being glued.
