Today I bring you a quaint little aircraft, which was built and flown but not accepted into service.

Of course your opinion and feedback is most appreciated.

Hi, Charguizard! Your drawing is wery well done... but the model chose was, well, somewhat odd ;) !

A engineless model, but with a rich history in WWII: Airspeed Horsa.
[ img ]
The yellow bellied one was a training model used during 1943. The second one is depicted as it appeared during the operations around Caen during D-Day. And the third one is shown as it was during the landings in Germany during Operation Varsity.

Unfortunatelly, I was unable to find an accurate description of the markings during Operation Market-Garden . So I hope that this link can compensate it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O05F-90 ... 05F-90fDJ4 (with permission of the moderators). Cheers!

A late night drop off; the Bulgarian-made DAR 10.
Length increased from 205px to 217px. Thank you eswube for pointing that out.

@Reytuerto
Nice work!

@Bordkanone75
Looks nice but I don't have good news for You. Length of the DAR-10 was 9,54m with Alfa Romeo 128 R.C.21 engine or 9,83m with Fiat A 74 R.C.38 engine for DAR-10F. That gives 211 (210,76622) and 217 (217,17419) pixels respectively.
And Your drawing is just 204 pixels long (for a longer F model). :(

Simple method of calculating scale (FD is 22,093 pixels for 1 metre):
size in question in meters x 22,093 = result

And since You're from the USA and still most likely use miles, feets and inches in everyday life, then 1 feet = 0,3048m (or 30,48cm) which means that 1 metre is 3,280839895ft.
There are many conversion tools available in the internet.

Charguizard,
The Pterodactyl Mk.V looks awesome. It looks perfect.

reytuerto,
An excellent addition. A very good set of drawings. Although they don't seem to show very well on photos you might want to check the panel lines, e.g. [ img ]

BK 75,
Another interesting addition but the scaling issue is a problem still. Once you've cracked that you'll be doing some very fine work.

Oh, thanks Hood! All the drawings that I was able to find were very scarce of panel lines. I will fix it this weekend! Cheers!
