Coming along nicely H. Is thee a small window in the rear fuselage, on the port side, near the wing trailing edge? Just wondering if HC have missed it or not.

I guess I need to get cracking in my Spit so there is at least some opposition waiting!

 

[Airframes]

Thanks H.
No problem for the defence -- got a couple of Spits and a Hurricane already built to take care of a lone Dornier.
Hmm - given me an idea for the scoring; instead of 1st, 2nd and third places, it could be kill, damaged and probable !!!
OK, I'll leave now shall I ..... ?

 

[vikingBerserker]

Nice job on the engines H.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

This is a great looking build you got going here H, it's looking good

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks guys


Just realized the push rods are way too big for this type of engine.....

 

[Airframes]

Are they the rods, or the cowling supports ?

 

[B-17engineer]

Pretty sure they're the push rods.

 

[Airframes]

I'll have a look when you post some pics. The D017 had a series of supports radiating from the engine boss, which look a bit like push rods at first glance.

Terry I'll post some pictures later.

 

[Airframes]

[B-17engineer]

Do-17 progress......The tape is to get the tail to sit so I can get the tail planes to go on...

 

[T Bolt]
