Fill in the spaces. The stringers are easy, this is the "yikes" part. |

Carve from blocks provided. Check. |

Then use Elmer's...someday I will learn to type! |

Perhaps some hot water or steam will permit the bend, they use Elmer's and rubber bands to hold it in place until the glue dries. |

Actually West Wings is correct. That point of attachment should represent where the canopy transitions from the bubble area to the three part front glass. The front of this plane is quite long once that elongated cowling is in place. |

That would be an 'interesting' curve, to say the least. And I'm sure West Wings didn't supply any vulcanized balsa with this kit did they? After working with all of those curves on your jets, I'm sure you're the right man for the job, Mr. D! |

Yikes! |

The 1/16" formers are glued to 1/16" sheet and being notched for 3/32" stringers. |

It's 3" shorter but has a fatter fuselage than the Spitfire. |

A rather small bird at 21.6" ws, wouldn't you say? |

No Blackbird for me, this will be next. |
