Hey H, to get back to the pumping up the guys were doin up above and to re-iterate it, we ALL make mistakes....

I made some big mistakes on the last 2 builds I did, big ones.... I was able to fix em and learn from them for next time..... We all do it and so will u...

Please, do not attach the landing gear until she's done bein painted and weathered, those will be the first things to break off, trust me, they broke on the 190D-9 I did....

 

[B-17engineer]

They can't be going back the way I took them out right?

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks a lot Dan! I haven't attached the landing gear yet

I did do what is in the picture about though!

Very good.....

I think there for the antenna or something. I need to have a look at the directions.

EDIT: There for the bead sight and right sight.

Oops, our post have criss-crossed. Excellent work Harrison. These flaps will be attached again but later. Don't worry. You'll make them open. Now please two close up pics of these flaps of both sides.

 

[B-17engineer]

Okay, like as if I'm fitting them? I'm not gluing I know

 

[Wurger]

Two close up pics of these taken out flaps I need to see both their sides to estimate what you have to do with them farther.

 

[B-17engineer]

Aye aye Sir!!

 

[Wurger]

 

[B-17engineer]

Took quite a few.

Hey Harrison, there seems to be an issue with the starboard side wing joint on the top where it meets the fuselage, but I cant see it too well from the angles.... This seam should be smooth and just about non-existant...

Do u have any putty/filler??? I think u may need to do some in certain areas, and some sanding, before u start gettin the paint on...

 

[B-17engineer]

I don't believe so. I mean I'd have to ask my dad but he's out roaming the streets of Millburn right now (He's a police officer not a hobo . ) When he comes home I'll ask.

 

[Wurger]

Excellent Harrison. Please. show me the inner sides of flaps. One pic should be enough.

 

[B-17engineer]

Sure can do, be back in about 2 minutes

 

[B-17engineer]

Here you are.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Good on ya mate, that's the go The photos are great, nice and clear and your looking good.

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks Vic appreciate it!

 

[Wurger]

Great Harrison. No damages happened to them. Instruction in the pic below.If you do that you can wash these flaps with water and soap and then dry.The next step will be to paint the inner flap surfaces wiith the same mixture like for the cockpit or mix yellow with a small op of silver for that.
