That engine cowling looks a bit short.

Friday i picked up another set of wings from Bill, this time they are the right size i worked on them over the weekend and managed to get ahead again, both panels have the retracts in, edges and tips, next i hope to get the flap areas sheeted, the servo boxes cut in, and join the wing together. Once this is done i shall offer the wing to the fuselage and make up the front kick by the wheel well.

Hi Chris,


Looking really good!

[chris willis]

Hi Allan, yes it is Tempest on that spar, but that will come out to play at a later date, i will send you a spinner cone soon for you to make up some of your fine backplates for the Fw.
Chris

[Allan Griffiths]

No problem just send us the cone and we sort it from that,

Allan

[chris willis]

Got a few jobs done this weekend, made up and fitted tail wheel, boxed in the wing servo boxes, sheeted the flap seats, joined the wing, and made part of the engine box, now that the wing is in place i can fair the wing to the cowl and kick the leading edge out.
