The kit also needed covers for the aileron linkage. Again, basswood carved and sanded.

Proud mom and kids. Eventually she took all but one of the ducklings with her. The leftover was adopted by one of the guys here. His family raised it and it eventually flew off. They called the duck "Cobblepot."

We had a population boom at my work. The office is next to a canal that the ducks enjoy. Plenty of room for a nest. One day these little guys showed up.

The kit did not have any hard points for missiles and bombs. I had to make them. Sizing was a "guesstimate" based on photos. From back to front you can see how the pieces evolved. Basswood and a hobby knife. I matched the curve of the wing by taping sand paper to the wing and running the piece side by side along it.

Cut it apart because I needed the round pipe. I didn't want to buy an 8 foot section of pipe.

I wanted to have a better detailed camera, so I had to cut out the wood brace and part of the molded in fuselage.

Intake scoop epoxied to the fuselage. Several pieces of scrap wood filled the gaps.

I needed to cut out another intake on the top of the scoop. I boxed it in with heavy card stock (an old business card.) Again, much use of the Dremel.

The air intake needed to be cleaned out, opened up and a splitter added. The Dremel came in real handy on this project.

The basic fuselage and wings on my desk.

This would be an in-flight exhibit. First order was to patch a lot of holes and missing parts of the fuselage. I used some large pieces of basswood and epoxy to fill the gaps. This is also the cleanest my desk has been in a long time.
