Ray, The Dassel was a constand chord aileron ship with a span of about 2M. The Airfoil was a Eppler 182, whihc has alot of reflex. It was a molded ship and a version of it was flown as an F3B entry back in the late 70's. Chord was about 8", flying stab. I'll see if I can dig out some pics, unless Skip Miller has some. Do you Skip?
