Christian Eagle

I would love it if someone would consider making a Christian Eagle. I have included some pictures.

We would need a proper "3-view" to model it.

Oh and BTW its a "Christen Eagle" not a "Christian Eagle"

(see attached pic showing how 3D modelling takes place)

Cool It's a biplane

Are you talking about the biplane or the aircraft you included in your picture. And it is called the Christian Eagle.

Developed in the late 1970s, the Christen Eagle II set a new mark of excellence for home built kit aircraft. The Eagle II, based on the famous Pitts Special, was designed by Frank Christensen as an unlimited class aerobatic aircraft that could be used for competition, advanced aerobatic training and sport cross-country flying. Since its introduction, more than a thousand Eagle IIs have delighted their owners and found homes with both professional and amateur pilots alike. LINK

StrongmanKB:

FYI: He put up the image to show you HOW 3D modeling is done.

He was not referring to the Christen Eagle itself with that image, merely what he would need to model it.

It would help him greatly if someone would provide him with those plan views to work from.

And the spelling -IS- "Christen".
