Hot off the digital memory card,



<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" />I justreceived pic's from Tommy of my new laminatedswept tip bows for Tinkerbell. Hot damn it's a shame to cover these things up.
It's a good thing we have photos, no one would believe the beauty that's buried insideof our planes, all covered up.


The first one is <?:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:smarttags" /><st1:pers&#111;nName>Gary Platner</st1:pers&#111;nName> owner of Mighty Mouse Toot. Then there is my other brother Tommy (half Witt) Meyer.
I also included is a plan viewof the wing tips we are talking about.



Originally designed for the Big Toot, but will be tested on Tinkerbell.
Theycan beretro fittedon a regularToot wing as they willshare the same spar spacing and chord.
Wow, I'm pumped!!
