It depends. How much data have you gathered? The more data you have, the
less guess work you have to do, and the quicker you can get the model to look
right.
When you refer to data, are you referring to the dimensions of the aircraft?
If so, I have all of this data already. The problem I see is my lack of
experience with Blender and the fact that I am a computer programmer not a
