You did well to re-do the tail area. Sometimes I need time to digest corrective tips that I receive before I can act.

Outfreakin'standing! You did a lot better than I in that exhaust section. I've not gotten one their kits where that part has fit without creating a migraine. I think I'm going to start cutting that part in half & assembling one side a time so it's more like the side of the Hasegawa kits as one piece per fuselage half. Add some thick styrene strips for reinforcement & see how it goes. Great job on your build!

So when this is the rear of the plane, are we then talking about a butt joint here? :giggles:
Well done, Medic!
