Nice work and a good save. Death to fiddly bits and stencils. Silly me, never thought to place the stencils on prior to assembly. Duh.

Yep, it was nothing that couldn't be dealt with, it just needed a time-out in the corner. Summer also realllly limits my bench time, so I'm really just getting back into the groove.

Great safe Vance. I hate those setbacks near the finish line.

Wow---I'm actually thinking of buying this kit now...usually when you build it dissuades me from a kit, but this time is different...

Well, she's on her feet:
Still need to add the nose gear door, clear part to the nose (light? or camera??), landing flaps. Should be wrapped up this evening, assuming I can concentrate on the baseball game as well as the bench, without endangering myself or the model.
