Dfell | Sterling Albatross DII-A | Build | 07-May-14 10:51 | ![](user_aircraft_thumb100/31563.jpg) | Views : 550 | One air pump and another dial. Still not keen on doing cockpits - this has certainly tried my patience and my skill |
Dfell | Sterling Albatross DII-A | Build | 27-Apr-14 09:26 | ![](user_aircraft_thumb100/31532.jpg) | Views : 591 | Trial fit. The 'wooden ' handle of the magneto starter is a blob of super glue. Some dials and a Quadrant lever. There is a something or other cut off switch - guess it must be under the seat :) |

Dfell | Sterling Albatross DII-A | Build | 27-Apr-14 09:16 | ![](user_aircraft_thumb100/31529.jpg) | Views : 542 | some scrap balsa wood vainly attempting to look like a leather seat |
Dfell | Sterling Albatross DII-A | Build | 04-Apr-14 10:38 | ![](user_aircraft_thumb100/31369.jpg) | Views : 617 | All boarded up. Not perfect as will be covering again with a thin wood veneer. Anyway that's my excuse. Also hoping the veneer will work especially over some awkward curves. |

Dfell | Sterling Albatross DII-A | Build | 04-Apr-14 10:36 | ![](user_aircraft_thumb100/31368.jpg) | Views : 499 | One seat. Hopefully to scale - as I had no size information based the width on the chair I happened to be sitting on. Approx 18 in wide.... :) |

Dfell | Sterling Albatross DII-A | Build | 23-Mar-14 07:04 | ![](user_aircraft_thumb100/31278.jpg) | Views : 504 | Tail and fin assembly. Have altered things slightly to plans - tried to keep it as the plane should be. Fin is thin plywood onto a frame (front section) and rudder part will be with tissue covering. |
