Very interesting seeing this beast getting built up Lyle! Must be a fair size as well?

It is rather large. Fuselage is about 16" and wingspan is around 30". BSYamato is doing the Me-323, so we have another of this beast coming.

Haven't been doing much. Down to a lot of fiddly bits and that isn't my favorite. I keep hoping they will assemble themselves.....

Tail surfaces.

Waings, or wings to you non-Southerners

And the flappy, aileron-y things

Trick is....stay up WAY past bed time...you'll be half asleep, autopilot kicks in. When you wake up the next morning, you don't even really remember messin with all them fiddlies....kinda like they assembled themselves!!!

Like leaving at 3am on a 12 hr road trip...by the time you really "wake up"...you're half way there!!!
