I'm planning to upscale an Andy Conway Tornado plan by 1.5 which gives an approx. 72" span. There's nothing new in this - Bert/Steve Clements did it and produced a beautiful model back in 96-ish.
However - no point in re-inventing the wheel, and I wondered if either of those gents might be on this forum or I could get in touch with them in some way?(ie. perhaps via their club secretary?)
Failing that - anyone got any tips they could offer for this project?

well... other than the remarks offered in the other "Tornado" post on this forum, I can't offer anything sensible :-) - except that I don't see how you can go wrong at that size, it should fly very well. Let us know how it comes out?...

Ok Thanks - Any ideas how to get hold of the VERY latest copy of the Tornado plan. I do have a copy but I've had it several years now and I'm not sure how to tell if it's the absolute latest version.

I've sent you Andy's contact details; the only reason I don't post them here is that I haven't asked him first.

...and, I seem to be progressively afflicted with the urge to build another Tornado! :-)

OK Thanks. I don't seem to have received Andy's e-mail details from you as yet - assuming you sent them to me in the last 24 hours.
I did send an e-mail to an Andy Conway address someone gave me a few weeks ago ago but no reply from Andy as yet.
I'm a bit reluctant to start balsa-hacking until I can confirm I've got the latest plan.

Hmmm.
I sent it as a person-to-person message on this forum last night, which tends to suggest that the forum messaging is broken. Do me a favour and see if you can message me, please?
