Did some CAD work for a relatively well known airframe today, anyone want to venture a guess as to which one it was?

And I usually work in 1/72 scale, and can attest I hate those things. :cry: Very fussy to place and glue.

Not really sure, I didn't even know what I was working on at the time. I had done a few things for a Stearman so I thought it was for the aileron of one of those (I am not familiar enough with Stearman's to know better). The boss only told me after I was done what it goes on.
