Neil ! On a model aeroplane, esp high wngers, rubber band spreads the lift load evenly on the wing unlike a dowel and a bolt, our mainline fighters are Jaguars & Hawks, so i need to ask you all was it rubber (pun intended
). That's on the lighter side, in real there are a lot of rubber used in an aeroplane, from mask to canopy seal to hydraulic pipelines to plethora of other stuff. I wonder what would we have become if there wasn't any rubber
I am going to take some time before venturing onto making model boats, though i sail (being born and brought up near sea and all), enterprise class mostly (at the staff college and in Mumbai), Boat Modelling is going to be challenge as i see, VC has promised to help me out and in return i am going to fly his mothballed aeroplanes
