Thanks Bruce acting as an initiator.. :-)

Yeps, was some time ago I last smelled some Mr. Cement S and today was the day that fume again filled my nostrils...

So today some milestones were reached... Closing the fuselaga halves and adding the wing construction...

The wing gaps were not that terrible, on the left side a decent does of Mr.Cement S melted the smaller gap "away" and on the right side a thin piece of evergreen styrene soaked in cement did the job.



I hope I will now be able to continue with this bird...

Huzzah! Now that... looks like an airplane!!!!! Great looking bench, too, Kari. I really like the non-green cutting board. I was searching for a white cutting board. I actually think I ought to buy a commercial white cutting board for food prep!

Lovely job assembling wings!!!!

Thanks Bruce,

the orange color of the cut map is more "vintage orange", pastell than "bright orange", making it actually quite peaceful to use.

This is the moment to decide, early or late...



I would have gone for the "late", but Revell has made here an error... In the instructions both versions can be used, but if you watch carefully the attachment details, you see that there is a big difference. I don't want to start making any surgery, so I will go for the "early" version...

Perhaps there would be room for some (tiny) scratch building after all....

Nice! I almost was expecting to see the adjusting rod or cable for the trim tab....

Tx Stik, still working on it....

Even in 1:32 a adjusting rod is pretty tiny... combined with my eyes... The thickness of the rod is just 0,3 mm

It might not be perfect, but there it is!
