1:48 Curtiss Jenny
One of the olderst triner aircrafts, and a model kit from the beginning, the old Lindberg. It is a poor kit, but it is the only and when it is rigged it looks good, i think

Nice!
This is one of the very few, early planes that I like. I think it needs a LOT more attention in the model world...I'd like to see a new (AFFORDABLE) kit of this in 48th and 32nd!

Re: 1:48 Curtiss Jenny
im not so good with rigging, some modeler love this, but not me.
I take transparent nylon wire from sewing shop, the german name is "unsichtbarer Faden", it is excellent to glue with superglue. Drill holes mith diameter 0,5mm and look to start in Fuselage and go am long way from hole to hole, some time 2 wing spans. than paint the wiring gun metal. For the distancer if nessesary between the riggs, I use metal sticks. One time I used metal wire, but was not happy with this.
