I am shocked and sad!!
Orion was one from few on this forum, that I really trust in, whenever he write a post.
It is really a big loss for our comunity, but thankfull his work here will stay as long forum will be alive.
Thank you Bill,
and Godspeed!

P.S.: Please correct me if I am wrong, but I think, this beautiful twin engine plane is Orion`s design?

If so, please, can anyone help me to find all renderings of this plane, as I would like to honor Orion` s design, with an RC model of this beautiful plane. (I need side and top view..) I know, I saw more renderings on our Forum, but cant find them...
Hi!
I am trying to model twin racer that late orion designed.
I was using two or three renederings published in this forum by Orion, so figuring out proper proportions is pretty hard task.
So, if anyone can point me to a 3view drawing of this sleek racer, Il be glad to build RC model.
I see, (compare pictures below) that wings should be more tapered, vertical tail smaller, engine nacelles slightly modified, cokpit canopy slightly changed, wing placed a bit higher on the fuselage, wing tips changed...
I can do that modifications step by step, getting closer and closer, but this will took some time and finding 3view drawing will save me a lot of steps...
So far I am not even close to Orion`s shape:
My aproximation
Orion` original
I know, this model will be awesome!
Regards!
