Exhausts. Trimmed and edges sanded to almost razor thin. Wet India ink to mark cuts on fuselage. |

Covering takes about 30 hrs. excluding drying time, includes fill, sanding and priming. With layout, frame-up, enginering,research, covering and finish I usually spend in excess of 200 hrs. on my models. |

Testor's wood glue--drys fast in warm weather, about 5 min. In cold weather I use thick CA. |

I'm sure there is a lot of dry fitting prior to glue-up. But what kind of adhesive do you use for final attachment? It looks great. Anxiously waiting for panel line markings. your completed projects are amazing. |

Thanks DD,.010 guage sheet plastic made it a bit easier. moostang51, the gear does retract but I have decided to affix them in the permanent down position along with the flaps. |
