The pain has returned..... These flappy thingies are really a bit of a bother.
I had to file down the top edges of the etched pieces to fit inside the wing. Added a wall for the end of the flap compartment. I did add a piece for the cockpit to rest on.
I sailor on.
Can you believe I took these pictures with my new mobile phone, @ 2MP!

Typhoon, oh yes, This is the Typhoon posting..... gotta keep them straight.
Been unable to do much of late. Healing is going slowly, and one thing after another.

So I am fitting the flaps now. I hope the rest goes a little quicker. Forgot the deadline is too soon.

And then I was silly enough to get etched flaps for the Spitty.... Doh

Have been able to do a bit of work on this one, since my Spitty problem is waiting on parts now. Since the cast problem I have chopped the control surfaces from the kit and filled and filed on them. Am happy with the result. I plug along. The cockpit is my next part to tackle. It's proving a bit of a hassle to get it in the right spot to tack in place. I sailor on.
