I'll be sure to pass along your congratulations to Jenna. The model
they were flying is a Finny at the core (thank you Bill!).
Specifically: shaved Peck Prop (2.2g), P/D about 1.8; longer boom and
shorter motor stick than plan, overall length is about 1.5 inches
longer; MS is 3/8inx1/4in #6 balsa; stab is 28 cm in span, cord and
sweep back are the same; tip plates are vertical (90 degrees); it's a
biplane w/ wing span of 38.7cm; cord is 9.9 cm; ribs are 4% simplex;
all six tip plates are vertical (90 degrees); covering is PPP film.
Both flights used .080in July-02 TanII.
