Re: A plane

Nice start, but it looks a bit too squarish (is there such a word?) to me; both the fuselage and the wings. Airfoil shape for relatively slow flying single prop plane like this one should be much rounder. Here's a cross cut of a Beech airfoil for reference: http://www.tech.purdue.edu/at/Course...es/airfoil.jpg

Not sure which plane it is supposed to be - prints look like Beech Bonanza... http://www.airliners.net/open.file/854220/L/
I suggest finding enough reference photos before going any further. http://www.airliners.net/search/ is a good place to start.

Re: A plane

I just dug my links and found better drawings for you, if indeed it is a Beech Bonanza...
