the width of the flight deck for mine is 16""wide and the length is 72""long and the hight from keel to flight deck 7'''' all in inches. :jump_1:

My Vic's flight deck is is half the width of that monster. The day's before the Angle Deck was ever thought of. :lol_3:

Should have some pictures of Vic later tonight.

:big_grin: yes balsa wood i am useing.5mm for hull frames 3mm for flight deck and 2.5mm for hull plating. :lol_3: dineing table no thats just tempory fix.we dont use it anyway.yes the flight deck is big :jump_1:

by Victorious » Mon Mar 06, 2006 4:58 am

Is that Balsa you are using? It's starting to take shape now matt :thumbs_up_1:

Don't know about using the dinning room table, you could use the flight deck for serving meals on, it's big enough. :lol_3: :lol_3: :lol_3:

by Guest » Sun Mar 05, 2006 7:27 pm

hello no worrys there :big_grin: i have to put more hull support beams in it which will make it strong.and it has pins and ca glue holding it i will post another photo when all the hull bracing is done.then she wont flex.and i am going to use 2.5 mm for the hull. :jump_1:

by ARH » Sun Mar 05, 2006 4:31 pm

Well all I can say its the strangest way of doing a hull, if you do not get that deck screwed down to a base soon, its going to twist , like it has already. ARH :wave_1: :wave_1: :thumbs_up_1:

by Timmy C » Sun Mar 05, 2006 3:38 pm
