Vic, no worries mate - and thanks!
That's a great photo in it's own right, being same time and place, and aircraft in same stripped condition as Braunen 4 - great for details!
Thanks too Andy, Paul and Wayne for extra input/ info.
Time is scarce as usual, so no speed records here. However, first cuts made, and broad tail dry fitted.
The lower fueslage of the Academy kit bulges out a little at the extension point, which will be sanded down to correct 'box' form once fueslage halves together.
Pics from top:
1. BEFORE
2. First cuts
3. First dry fit
4. AFTER - 2nd dry fit after intial sanding - to be completed when fueslage halves joined
5,6,7. Details of standard and broad tails (incl. W.nr.500645), and of 'box' fueslage extension (from 'German Aircraft Interiors 1935-1945 Vol.1, K.A. Merrick)
