    Hello from Canada

    It actually took me less time to model out the Dinah than it did to model a twin otter. The center is literally just ellipses centered on the thrust line, plus another set of ellipses for the actual canopy. Then all the flight surfaces are straight lines except for the tips. It’s such a...
