Can anyone tell me if the Honker 250 wing assembly is the same for the Honker Rocket?

There are only a few minor differences in the fuselage and vertical stabilizer/rudder between the Honker and the Honker Rocket. Other than that, they should be pretty much identical - especially in the wing. One of Doug Hart's design philosophies is interoperability. Why design 25 different wings when you can use the same wing design across several models. For example, the Skylark, Falcon, Cub, and Sky Tiger all use the exact same wing. Likewise the Honker, Honker Bipe, and Honker Rocket all use the same wing.

Thank you for the information. That makes perfect sense. I'll get with WillyNillies and let them know I am missing the wing supports in my kit.
Best Regards,
Terry

OK. Please be aware that WillyNillies is a two person operation and both have "day jobs" so don't be alarmed if you don't get an immediate response. Unfortunately, I don't live near them so I can't help with the manufacturing/shipping side.
