Thanks for all that......

Since I am using brass barrels for the guns, the holes were rather unstable. So I have plugged them with PVC rod, then flattend the ends and then drilled them to receive the barrel, and the pitot tube, THEN I finished the plug to the curve of the edge of the wing. Would have been a nightmare to drill on the curve. Stuck in a block behind the cowl as well, did the same for the barrels.

Gonna start painting pretty soon, I hope!!!!!!!!!!

Yous guys are funny.......

I used to work with a bloke in the States who towed banners. He let me take the controls of his little high wing with a banner out the back at 800 feet around the Oakland Colliseum during a baseball game. The local radar always used to ask us to verify our "lack of altitude"!

Maybe I'll have to make a Krusty banner and have it on the deck along side the plane on my shelf. A real clown dio!!!!!!

Painted the other parts this a.m.
