Joe, just been reading up on it as I didn't know anything about it.  The article I read says something about having 'caret' wings, are you going to do one like that too?. The article also says that the designers knew all the edges would have to be 'rounded' and the nose 'blunted'. Any plans on doing any of these?

Got any references on the Scott Furlong Predator?  It looks like an interesting beastie.

Sorry Joe, all I know about it is in the article I linked to.  But   :-[  I see you have already covered the 'caret' wing development. I missed that  ---  :-[

Do you plan to release the Scott-Furlong Predator?  It would just be so cool with all the period reference material that could be printed out and put out as an entry at a contest.

I tried to locate a "Spoton Designs" online and came up with several web designers, but nothing like an outfit that sells resin models.  Any ideas?  I would preferPayPal.  Note, I live in the US.
