Sport Sport plane for a Kolm 150

During your builds I always notice how everything fits very nicely, the wood is always clean/sanded, and no excess glue. Bravo!

I enjoy the wood working part fitting all the joints always strive to make best structures and as light as possibly. I seem to have a lot of patience to do that. But when it comes to cockpits and finishing details I just don’t have patience or the will to do that. I watch @TonyHallo doing detailed scale work all the time and I am just amazed.

@BalsaDust ok I need some help. I have an XL number sheet of an aero foil for a racing plane. It’s MH17 airfoil coordinates. Trying to find how to load it into AutoCad 14. So that I can manipulate it to the correct cord length to make it legal. Can you help please.

Just plodding along did some sheeting on the second wing. Just have to give it an hour to setup and then I can sheet the trailing edge.

Assuming you're referring to this as its the first thing that came up when I googled MH17 airfoil. Let me look and figure it out. May have to literally put all of the coordinates in by hand.

Copied and pasted thr coordinates into Compufoil, if I had the dxf function I could generate a drawing for you.

That is what I was trying to avoid not to have to type all the numbers in by hand. I can do that Not fun and a lot of time I was asking if there is a way to import the numbers so that AutoCAD recognize the numbers.

Do not have compufoil.

Just finished sheeting the trailing edge on the second wing hopefully it straight and flat.. will find out in a couple of hours. Spent a while with a laser setting up the trailing edge.
still trying to get both wings fully sheeted both sides and the flap hinges installed and the flap cut out and fitted before the flying season starts.
