Sanding seams today, the bottom of the fuselage was pretty bad. There are about twenty more rigging holes to drill. Thanks for looking in!

Looking pretty nice Paul.

I must commend you in your photo set ups.
Just tossing the subject onto the bench, you seem to have all the luck that it lands in a suitable composition for the shot.

Well done on both................................... oh my.

Thanks all for looking in and the nice comments.
Bill is absolutely correct, It is amazing how I can throw a model into any position and it looks great. However, I have had some problems fitting the top wing as shown in the instructions. This was corrected by studying pictures of the real aircraft. I had to swap the "N" struts and am now waiting for the struts to dry before setting the rigging.
