That is supposed to be "Pactra". Duh! |

Once again poppy, beautiful work. |

What kind of Dope are you using for those wings? I have a Tissue (uhu) covered F-1 racer that needs to be doped.....(my first tissue/dope job).
Thx,

Wing skins complete and doped. The span is 31-1/2". I think I will cover them with silkspan for a change. |

Nicely done. Are you going for "solid" wing tips??? |

Poppy, can you post or email me a pic or two of the leading and trailing edges of your covered wings? Im curious to get a closer look at them...thanks! |

My "clamps" for holding trailing edge and top curve in place. I like to run a glue bead along top of each rib and the length of each edge. |

Masking tape holds front edge while glue sets. |

I like to cover wing bottoms first. |

3 section wing frames. |

Very clean Poppy. Are you using the balsa sheet to pattern the panel lines? |

Great! I wish it would snow here!! It's going down to near freezing tonight but it's clear as a bell. |

Outstanding Poppy....I covered my Texan with tissue and covering that rear deck wrinkle free was a major challenge. Why to go Ole Man!!! |

Nose contours. Rear deck will have carved balsa block when stabs are in place. |

2 coats clear dope and 2 coats of sandable primer seals wood against moisture when applying filler. |

Carved balsa block for curved turtle deck. |
