Rear block for outside nacelle will be carved when wing covering installed. Outer nacelle req'd 12 pieces 1/16" balsa, inner one 18 pcs. |

2 nacelles finished. |

Nacelle blocks in place, L/G sitting in place. This is going to be like building 4 small fuselages. I think in the fifties the words "easy build" were not as important as they would be today. |

You going to put a wing fold like a Corsair? With the 3' span of my Piper, every time I moved it from one location to another I would knock the wing tips on something. This is a pretty amazing build, Poppy. |

A wing span taller than the average ham sandwich! |

Full span-right wing. |

Somehow I think you can handle it! |

Remarkable!! You have got to love this model....a tad large but wonderful! |

Another 37" will be added to complete full wingspan. |

Test fit of wing sections. |

3/16" spars added mainly to keep balsa skins from sagging. Inner wings are 20 1/2" inside to outside ribs. Outer wing panel will be 18 1/2" and is removable. |

Nacelles frames finished and attached to wing. |
