Working W/O benifit of instructions, Uncle Carlo and I are "WingingIT" so to speak this evening. I do not need a dihedral and the ventral wing surface is flat 38 in span. |

Slightly ahead of schedule the engines, bearings and props are a unit that will be installed when the remainder of the Goose is painted and assembled. As you can see I am starting the wings. |
