Curtiss CW 24-B - 2015/03
I often search for something unique to build. One unusual-looking airplane is Curtiss-Wright XP-55 Ascender. I contemplated building a scale model of the XP-55, but then I saw pictures of the Curtiss Wright CW-24B. It is similar to the XP-55 but has fixed landing gear.

Der Jager D-IX - 2009/04
A WWI-looking home-built fresh from the 1970s
SEVERAL YEARS AGO, in one of the aircraft magazines I saw
pictures of a unique-looking home-built biplane called the “Der Jager
D-IX.” I was attracted to it because of its shape and color scheme.
Marshall Wright designed and built the airplane.
Spectra II - 2008/07
YEARS AGO I saw an article in the July
1971 Radio Control Modeler magazine that
highlighted what I believed to be the nicest
scale seaplane: the Spectra II. I really liked
the design, but because of other priorities I did
not build it then. I recently stumbled across
the original RCM with the Spectra II on its
cover again, and this time I decided to build it.
