Erwin Posted October 23, 2005 Author Share Posted October 23, 2005 Adding the vac airintake proved very difficult. The main thing was to get it to blend in with the wingsurface. At one place I sanded to much on the 1,5 mm balsasheet that I went right trough it. So had to fix that problem too. Making the left wing will go smoother I hope,lurning from the mistakes I made doing the right wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyfarm Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Hi Erwin, I'm doing some mental imagery trying to follow your build (non-modelers might call it hallucinating... what do they know...! ). I have an educated guess as to which model it is, and I see some interesting and difficult angles it must entail. I sanded through some of my styrene. What a pain. Seems like fixing the balsa panels would be a bit more tricky Matty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyfarm Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Hmmm. Air intakes on the wings. Hmmm... Maybe it's not one of the kits you've mentioned are in your stash... Matty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted October 25, 2005 Author Share Posted October 25, 2005 The left outerwingsection is on the way. Much easier than the right one.Lurning from the mistakes. After that it's getting started on the flaps witch will need much drilling. There's a six-pack in it for the first right guess on the build I'm doing.Oh...to be drunk at my place Jens,that's a six-pack of cola for you I'm afraid.

Cheers Derek Stick to WW-2 Hmmm...I'll now have to have a re-think Erwin...I think that I shall await some more of your build progress report before I next venture my guess Cheers Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 Nice try guys,but... Wing is now complete excempt for the flaps with I will make later. Starting on this big fuselage,witch has a large canopy, will be a bigger job than my previous builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek B Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 ...Still haven't seen the clincher yet, but it'll come (good fun this Erwin! ). It sounds like it's large...the drilled flaps stump me at the moment, but I think that I now understand what the air intakes are...stay tuned.

Jens Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 As you can see ,the right outerwing is going well. A lot more work than expected. Still need to add the vac parts for the airintakes in the wing. cosiar?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vernon Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Wing air intakes... World War II... Outer wings... Large canopy... I'd guess it at being a Gloster Meteor or a Fairey Firefly... ...but then again, my eyesight isn't what it used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
