I replaced the stringers for some sig stringers. The guillow stringers were too heavy. The fuselage is light because I also poked some holes in the formers.

Guillow"s 403-It's been fun working on the 500 series Spitfire. So, I decided to build its bigger brother, the series 403. Unlike its little brother (an almost laser like kit), the quality of the die cutting was not up to snuff. Therefore, I tacked the formers together to do whatever needed to be done to insure sameness.

After some thought and research, I painted the first part of my Camo. I tried to adhere to the pattern suggested by Guillow but if only pigs could fly. I used Foto/Frisket Film to help me with my patterns.

The wing feels like a heavy possicle stick, so I reduced the weight by drilling holes with my drill press. I placed a block of wood underneath. This eliminates tearout.
