chrish Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 I have since my last visit, closed up the fuselage, cleaned up the seams (primer will tell whether I've finished those seams) and stuck another large block of Pb in the nose requiring butchery of the engine mount to get it in there. A viewing of pictures of my friends aircraft showed propeller blades of different profile than whats in the kit. In any case, a few pictures of the work in progress; The kit prop. Added some plastic to reprofile the blades and sanded to shape and repeater compass and his own add on, pre-flight check list on the edge of the instrument cover Getting closer Thanks for looking Rockie Yarwood, Archimedes, RadBaron and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrish Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 Progress slow and is at least one respect, not all that good but, still moving ahead. A solid 3 days of masking (some obviously didn't pan out) My masking of the range extenders is...lacking A look at how it should all come together hopefully sometime soon, the windshield is not glued in yet. Just noticed as well, the model has a noticeable lean to the right side Thanks for looking CODY, patricksparks, tucohoward and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
