I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

Not exactly a sharp image, but wanted to show that I trimmed away much of the longeron around the cockpit area. It's my intent, to try the "drop box" method of installing the cockpit.

The build commences. Finally getting to cut and glue wood. It's been awhile.....

Another "slight" difference was how the belly scoop faired into the lower fuselage. The Guillow's shows a rather sharp curve ending into the lower belly, whereas the 3-views shows a more modest blending. I'm going with the 3-views. Shouldn't be too hard to handle.... I hope

As seen from my previous post, the vertical tails are nearly exact in overall dimensions

Surprisingly, the vertical tails match perfectly...

The differences become more apparent. Since it's my intentions to both infill and over-plank the fuselage, I decided not to enlarge most of the formers. Instead, the planking and the added thickness with compensate for me (or so the theory goes).

Delving a bit deeper revealed just s slight difference. As will be seen on the next post.

I enlarged a set of 3-views to scale and was surprised to find that Guillow's fuselage matches the 3-views fairly close

Brush on 2 coats of Aerogloss glear and allow 3 days to dry all pinned up to prevent warps.
