Discovering A Hidden Wing & Model Concept Every now and then I have to have a tidy up in my workshop in an effort to find what is in there. And sometimes even to make room for another model! Very often a jewel is uncovered in the form of a long forgotten model or piece of electronic gizmo that has fallen off the shelf when it sagged from the burden it was carrying - or rather, failed to carry! But it would take too long for me to redesign my playpen so that there was a place for everything in it, so it must stay as it is. Anyway, while having the recent clear out I found an obeche veneer covered foam wing left over from a design I did in Spring 1998. This was a sloper called the Scimitar, which was published in another magazine. The wing was complete, except for the covering, and as I was 'between models' so to speak, I wondered if there was a new design lurking in a corner of my mind - or was it just another pipedream?
