Donald, :D
I could reach thru the screen and kiss you! :o :D :o :D :D
That diagram of what the different parts of the wing is something I was getting ready to ask about.
Everytime a Poster states that they have used a "first order gamma goofy delta feather" :? . It makes about that much sense to me and I'm sure that most beginners feel just as informed.
You wouldn't happen to have any other sketches of other itty-bitty birdy parts that explain such things you might be willing to post?
Please, pretty, pretty pluease???????

Thanks,
hank

I had a reference sketch from ??, but not nearly as clear and understandable as those two posts.
Those go in my Soft Hackle notebook.
I thank both of you gentlemen.

Yes, thanks, Stendalen - but I have to say, that bird doesn't look well.... ;)

In the interst of international relations, anybody who starts off on the Monty Python parrot sketch - will be shot!! :lol:
