| David Duckett | Cleveland Lockheed P-80 | Build | 24-Jun-14 04:39 |  | | Views : 992 | | Main landing gear doors have been added. The vanes in the intakes were made from .020 styrene and balsa sticks. 1 1/4 ounces of lead weight was implanted in the bottom of nose to bring it to a three point stance. |

| simpleflyer | Guillows 25S-DC12 Boeing B-29 | Build | 23-Jun-14 14:55 |  | | Views : 1660 | | Another mod was the gluing of a couple basswood pegs into the bottom of the vertical tail. This allows for a removable tail and more strength in that area. |
| simpleflyer | Guillows 25S-DC12 Boeing B-29 | Build | 23-Jun-14 14:46 |  | | Views : 1585 | | Nacelle construction is also altered from the kit plan, At the top are the three die cut pieces provided in the kit for a nacelle, below is the modified structure-the nacelle top has been lengthened and a piece has been added between the top and bottom. This makes for simpler construction and adds more dept to the nacelle to bring it more into scale. As seen in the B-29 picture posted earlier, the actual nacelles have more of an oval cross section than a circle. |
