Medic, brilliant work on those assemblies. It looks even better than the one I did for someone some years back. Keep it coming man!

(To the tune of 'Row, Row Your Boat")

Sand, sand, sand your plane
with ever finer grit
fill it, fill it, fill it, fill it then we sand again
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Finally got to a point that I could join the fuselage halves. Installed the engine and started closing it up from the back first.
