This looks great, Poppy. Full scale engineering going on here! |

L/G not installed, only sitting in position. Wing section is so large, It was necessary to piece the wing covering in place. The same will be true for the top of wing. |

Wing covering begins. !/16" sheet balsa for skins installed with CA glue. |

Thanks, John. This is turning into a long term build. The balsa blocks are very hard. I had to break out the Mouse and Dremel tool to get them shaped. There are 2 to go but have decided to complete one wing at a time. |
