Must say that seat is bad - why don't you replace those seat belts ? It's easy to do and will look very good

A h*lluva lot better work than I did in your age H, keep at it mate!

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks Jan!

A lot of work Today and maybe a bit tomorrow. Thursday I'm out of state for a VERY long day.

 

[Wayne Little]

Get to it then my young friend!!

 

[B-17engineer]

Well today not much work since I was at the doctors and I got tag teamed by Strep throat, ear infection, and fever...

 

[B-17engineer]

Pictures Tomorrow HOPEFULLY......

Too sick to hold the camera but I did glue the cockpit to the right fuselage. Dry fitted and looks like a damned good fit. I'm planning on using gear and wheels from the 1977 (?) or older Revell kit that I tried to build. I salvaged parts and I did a good job on the wheels so I am using them

Apart from the catalogue of nasty infections, sounds good H! That Police Academy must be a dangerous, and infectious place!

 

[B-17engineer]

Well I began the week sick. Felt like passing out during our run this morning but made it. And then I was live example to be strapped onto the stretcher during first aid..... felt good to lay down

 

[Peebs]

Coming along nicely mate,
I've been watching this thread with keen interest as I have a 1:32 51-D waiting for me in the cupboard!

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks!

I actually got 3 more P-51's in the mail today

 

[Wayne Little]

Get well Harrison....hope you're over your sick spell quickly.....

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks Wayne!

 

[B-17engineer]

OK fuselage and wings done. Then any necessary steps before attaching the two. There will be a little filling not much. A picture of the wheels I will use from another kit...

 

[Wurger]

Looking very nice H~

 

[Airframes]

I agree. But, are those tailplanes at an angle?

 

[Crimea_River]

Looks like it to me too, easily done if these aren't put on after gluing the fuselage together. I like putting these on afer the main wings are on so I can use the wings as reference lines.

Otherwise, it's coming along nicely H.
