heppnerguy Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 I downloaded a pattern of the Kitty Hawk and found that it was not a very good pattern and the details on it were very abstract and difficult to really figure out so I just left it and forgot about it. I ran across it a couple of days ago and decided I would try it anyway. It took a lot of fooling with but I got it together, kind of. It is about 4 inches long and the wing span is about 4 inches. i have always wanted to make a replica of it and this was the best I could find. Maybe down the road I will remake the pattern so I can make it larger and more precise, but for now, this will have to do, I guess.

JustLarry Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Looks good to me. Bet the Brothers had to remake their pattern a time or two to get it to turn out the way they wanted it to. Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amazingkevin Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 I totally forgot what it looked like.Interesting. I like planes and bought a few but never flew them. I even have a worlds record rubber band plane that stays flying for9 minutes 29 seconds in balsa wood 9.99 i bought 24 years ago and never put it together, was in ohio and forgot to look at the original on display there.
