All the pieces of foam added and rough sanded to form the plug for a mould.

Stunning workmanship Alan, What did you make the landing wires from?

regards Dave.

Making a start on the cowling, drawing is not very good for this as the parts are made for purchase as a plan pack.
Still here goes!

Fitting the Engine Bulkhead.

Interplane fixings Lower Wing.

Enthused again, Flying wire - Landing wire wing fixings.

Great to see your getting on with the build, inspiring.

Checking fit cont'd.

Today I've just been checking the fit of wings and tail feathers, checking alignment of wings to fuselage, tailplane to wings, and marking the position of the interplane strut half ribs so I can get on with finishing sheeting of top and bottom wings.

Still joining wing panels!

Some more pics.

Hi Everyone, I'm afraid I'd lost enthusiasm during the summer and had too many projects on the go. The model is far from finished but I've just started back on the build, just joined the top wing panels. I'll put some pics up as soon as I get some worth uploading. Still looking for a suitable engine...

Some more work done on upper wing panels,

Hi Simon, build has slowed down a bit as it has been very cold in my garage, still I've just started on the upper wing now and will update the build shortly. I would be interested to see your squadren of pitts, PM me and I'll forward my e-mail on to you. What were your 1/3rd Pitts built from plan, A...

Alan I did think of using a single cylinder but for the reason of the bits sticking out and vibration issues, thanks for the info though.

Hi Ian I hope to use an 80cc twin, the zenoah looks like it should go in but I think the height of the inlet manifold may be restrictive, if not that I may squeeze a DLE 110 in but then the plug caps may end up protruding out the sides. As to colour scheme and in answer to Alan's question. Yes I am ...

A couple of pics of the undercarriage assy. and the cabane strut assy.
The cabane strut assy is made of flattened tube and fully welded, it seems a bit heavy for what it is I might see if I can fabricate one from ally section.

Some more time spent on the lower wing panels now the temperature has risen a few degrees in the garage. Port and Starboard lower wing assembled apart from interplane strut rib mounts which will be done after the lower wing panels have been joined and top sheeting applied. Servo boxes and aileron ho...

Had to modify the cabane strut assy. after I made it it did not fit between the formers,too long, yet I marked and cut the parts direct from the drawing which showed actual size parts. Should have inspected drawing closer, still lesson learnt.
