I’ve seen that. Quite a story. Sturdy bird. Probably the best landing she ever made!

That seam should be finished up today...as soon s the Bondo dries. I am hap, hap, happy with how it rurned out There was a twist, downward warping and a bowing in the fuselage.

QUESTION

What are the chances of the makss for the Trumpeter 1/48 F-106 fitting this Monogram kit?
