| The landing gear door area has been cut out and a floor of sorts installed which will serve as the base for the installation of the gear. The air scoops were made with laminations. They have one coat of filler and are sanded to shape. |

| These are 2" 1/64" plywood discs made by Ted to insure the front remains a circle. He also made a couple more which will be used for the base of the spinners. |

| The basic shaping of the cylinder set is not yet completed but Gumby put a quick coat of paint on them and hastily installed them into the crankcase for a “look see”. He has been at engine construction for over a week and there is quite a bit of work remaining. That’s why I pay him well over minimum wage. Model fabrication pays better than making burgers at Burger King! |
