Got to be a bummer to have to work for a living :cry:
Some times in the afternoons, for no reason, I just make a pitcher of Margaritas, sit on the deck, and watch the boats on the lake

Nice repair :D very hard to salvage such a section :D
 
The down side is AGE. Things I thought were healed 50 years ago really weren't and nothing works the way it used too.. The Lord giveth and the Lord takeith away
 
Ok port wing....assembled, sanded, panel lines mostly done and now fitted the engine nacelles.

Now this time i did not close up the gap in the wing area immediately behind the engine nacelle assembly, this allowed a 'spring' effect when fitting the nacelle assembly reducing the sort of gaps shown on the rear sections, first i glued the larger areas of the lower nacelles and once set did the smaller top sections....

Next stage the engine assemblies...
