GAS: In the Works Stampe

[kilo delta]

Looking forward to the Stampe. There are a couple based at my local field including EI-BAJ..

You have a point about the cowl. (not yet convinced about how much to modify the rudder) That can be addressed. Good pick up. It pays to have eyes look at the project as it progresses. Thanks for pointing that out.

Stampe New Cowl

Here is the plane with the new and more accurate cowl. Again, Peter, Thanks for pointing it out. Looks much better with the new nose

Wow! That was quick! Impressive. Looking great

I agree - the improved Stampe looks correct at the nose, compared to the r/l examples provided.

the tail (vert fin and rudder) still look a little different - the r/l example looks similar to what you see on a Stearman - while the GAS version looks more DeHavilland...
but it is only a very slight difference and not a show stopper to me.

any updates from the GAS company...?

The rudder has been remodeled to match the actual aircraft. The Cockpit is about 85% complete and if all goes as planned beta in three weeks, maybe less.
