I saw that on "the other forum" and didn't quite understand what was meant; this picture fills in the gap.

For our gentle EAA readers - there is a highly technical and historically nit-picky thread of this build here:

http://www.theaerodrome.com/forum/sh...ad.php?t=66492

It's much more in depth than the one here, as there are folks dedicated to WWI aircraft with a lot of information and experience.

Because everyone is really, really smart there, I save all my dumb questions for this thread. They already think I'm an idiot over my build and some of the stuff I've done, and I cause enough rolled eyes as it is.

But hey, if it wasn't for builders like me, we couldn't have a true average; without a baseline of "gooder enough," how would we know if something was truly excellent?
