Added the tail parts. Not sure of the reasoning behind the two part stabs; there are no others for different variants. There's an old saying on the internet, just because you can doesn't mean you should
Waiting for the three piece wings to set. I test fit the lower section to the fuselage and got a superior fit

The left being better
Already enough dihedral so pulling the wings up is not an option. As can seen seen in the instructions, the lower wing is not full and slots into the upper wing (A) so while trying to keep this flush probably opened up the wing root but only on one side(?). There will be mud
Nice Geo

Good stuff Geo and Karl!

Eduard would like you to have the wing leading edge slats open but I prefer everything closed up so off came the attachment lugs which would have needed thinning to fit anyhow. The left slat was a tad long so I filed it to fit. Pitot tube is trying desperately to leave but I wanna see how long it stays
I will have no choice but to have the flaps and radiator flaps in the dropped position, too much effort for me
