Hey!
Can't be! I don't have a Dec'46 issue, nor does any HPA reader! If you look it up you can't find it in HPA :)
Why do I make such a fuss? It's because the plan says the wingspan is 5 feet, which to me is 60". A half-wing would be 30" but measuring the plan I see 34.45".
As I have no doubts concerning ilgk48 ability, this may mean that whoever handled this bit of the magazine 77 years ago got their math wrong.
Therefore I would like to check the original. Please? :)
