L-5

You're fast! Caught that typo before I could edit it out. Those oleos completely nix the L-2.
Does the L-5 have more parts than those shown?

Yup. But I just traded this airplane off for another little somethin'-somethin'. So this is just a "temporary" time killer for me.

Given that it is a monoplane with twin vertical stabilizers, how about the "Scarecoupe"?

Who says it has to be a monoplane? Crazier things have been born here you know.

CG will be off a tad....

Vertical stabs need to be larger..

I've been told that Gary's new project is one of those T-6 bi-wing agplanes...

Gary, don't worry I have some Bamboo bomber nacells and half of a fusleage, perhaps you can build a twin 4360 racer project and graft that twin tail and you will be ready for Reno next year.
