Got the fuselage and front cowling together. Test fitted the wings and yes, they are going to be a problem.

Good way to sort of wind down after some heavy duty building. I likes it a lot, so far.

Are you going to improvise a ring mount seat for the gunner? Or just leave that “as is”?

The wing to fuselage join is going to be enough work on this one.

One wing at a time. I think I can get it somewhat close to the fuselage without much of a step.
