Thanks Guys, moving along, ailerons attached to wings, now I pre-drilled all the Antenna holes you can see them on the upper wings.....and the lower wings with small 'Flat' discs for the bases of the aerial attachments. I used 1.5mm plastic rod drilled holes with .6mm drill and then sliced/sawed with small saw to create each base, the first of which you can see on the lower wing.....that was fun....not..! I think it does the job though.

 
Now, well after I pre-drilled those antenna holes I noted from one of the main pics and Erich's layout image that the upper wing Antenna's were in a straight line not one (top) off set.
So I then created a small template to line up the two end holes to then re-align the middle 2 holes, once done I then glued small stretched sprue 'plugs' in the wrong holes, sanded them smooth and then placed the small Flat discs over the appropriate holes using a small .6mm brass rod to line things up for each hole, same was then repeated for the upper fuselage front and rear to get all in position.
