For those who like agricultural aircraft the Piper Pawnee makes a good subject,basically a low wing version of the Piper Cub which we have also covered here recently.
Good stable wing planform with no vices,good spacious fuselage with plenty of scope for flour dropping to simulate crop dusting! ( tutorial soon on how to do this ) all in all a real fun scale machine.
As the machine has a rugged fixed undercarriage no problems with retract gear,ideal for less than perfect flying fields and once again simulates the full size which can operate from ploughed fields with larger Tunda ( doughnut)tyres.
