In a recent post on the subject of the Cherokee-D, rocketguy101 posted a .pdf of a Cherokee D fin pattern (with the image seen below) that is meant to be cut from balsa stock that is too narrow to have the fins made from a single piece of balsa.
I've never seen any instructions that mention gluing two pieces of balsa together and hand cutting them from the resulting sheet. This has to be older than the instructions seen on JimZ's site (https://www.spacemodeling.org/jimz/estes/k-47.pdf). I *REALLY* want to see the instructions that would have called for this method of building. I've just checked on the JimZ scan, and there's no mention of kit number that I could find. I'm wondering what other variants (if any) exist.
Thanks!
