I uploaded the subject airplane to flightsim and simviation earlier today. Should be there tomorrow. This was an interesting project mainly due to the lack of data. After all these years performance data is still classified and/or was never published. I did find a 3 view probably from a plastic model kit but it was quite inaccurate compared to the few available photo's. I always went with the photo's. This was a prewar attempt by the US Army Air Corps to create a STOL aircraft. It has the usual stuff plus animated cowl flaps, droopy ailerons and leading edge slats. It is a native FSX-Acceleration project. I found no data on the cockpit so it is a WAG.

Hope you like it, Paul
 
Dear Paul,

I would like to thank you for the very interesting design. For me, it is great to learn something new about planes which I have never heard of, such like this one. :ernae:

That is a very wild design Paul.

Many thanks Sir!


I had never known about it until you started making it.

Excellent Paul, I really do like the aircraft you choose to model. Always fascinating. :)
