It's a few photos shot by the maker of the tent to show their product- no dimensions, but IIRC, the article says something along the lines of three Albatros single seaters could be parked in one- two facing one direction, and the other turned around.

E. >> My sense of propriety and exquisite bloody taste prevents me from any comment regarding men festooned with fronds, but this is a good time to make a few remarks about all the new models that have been posted in my absence- Pete Leonard: great DH-5 and Snipe- just what did you do to extract a Snipe from a Camel- how many parts from the box did you use?

Todd Henry- nice W.18, but the water is really neat Lance Krieg: it's good to see someone that can make silk purses etc.....from the old Auroras Jim Landon: I still have to give your Tommy some in-depth time, but a quick glance at your rib tapes and stitching makes me happy.
