Just came across this link to a great looking twin designed by Mike Stuart and he's made it available for free download. Beech Super King Air 200. Beech Super King Air 200 plan

Mike has made a great model that is really tugging at my build strings! Such a great looking twin that has such great promise. Thanks Mike for your inspiration, generosity and sharing such a great plan.

Pete,

In the moves over the last year, the one box that got lost had my assortment of aluminum and brass tubes, scale, and several tools. So I don't have a scale to weigh the model yet. I hope to replace the scale soon...Harbor Freight Tools has one that goes to 0.1 gram registration for about $10.00.

I hope to have a weight for you soon.

Tom

That's a very vibrant and eye catching color scheme! Smiley

You know how you think you've completed a model and you done everything you'd plan to do...then you take some pictures of the plane to post and you see a glaring missing element!

TAAA DAAAA....I've just done it! Can you see it?

Here's the pictures, I still have to build a stooge for this beauty!(I kinda like it)

thanks Don,

I'm kinda growing fonder of the scheme each day. Just have some trim to add and finish the wing attachment and I'll be set.

Hi Tom,

As usual, very nice work!

And as mentioned before, you'll be able to pick this one out against any colored sky.

Got some more done on the Rutango today.

Props and propblocks finished
Vertical Stabs doped and attached
Cockpit glazing in place

I used the EzeDope straight with a brush on the vertical stabs. It went on much better. Water soluble it is but the water tends to make the EzeDope bubble.

I used Aleene's Tacky Glue to attach the glazing on the side windows and windshield.

I decided that with this sport model the yellow props only added to the bright color scheme!

Still have to make the wing attachment setup...giving this some more thought.

Here's the pictures
