Started to lay out the panel lines. I bought a cheezy set of Rapiograph-type draughtsman felt tip pens at the local Hobby Lobby. They don't work to well on a glossy surface so I treid wiping the paint job down with denatured alchohol to erase the mistakes, which worked (sort of). The alchohol did act like a weak de-glosser and the next attempt worked better. I think that being it's Friday the 13th today, I shall find something else to do before I muck this thing up really bad.

A/B duct installed. Two rings of soft solder CA'd to the former to provide gluing surface for the A/B nozzles and the plastic (ex-coke bottle) tail-piece fairing.

THis is the Afterburne exhaust. I used the "Paint" program to print out a mottled sheet to simulate the exhaust. The flame-holder rings are cardboard and Basswood sticks painted with cheap acyrlics ($0.50 @) from wallyworld.

The center section of the upper wing fits onto the cabane struts.

With the construction and install of the air foils, it would be a nice time to have instructions, alas there are none. Must rely upon Gumby’s neurons and luck. The little minx is such the jokester he installed a boat prop to see if the QC department would notice his hijinks.

Prepping for tomorrow’s wing ding thing. This is the first time we have encountered a plan where the upper and lower wing are printed over each other.
