I am sitting here grousing that the canopy is smaller than the opening and I notice that there is an L2 shown on the plan that fits the opening in the front corner. Never mind! |

Three coats of thinned clear, she looks decent. Only one repair to the fuselage right at the elevator slot. |

I built up the eladinga nd trailing edges, papering this type of wing isn't a strong point. I do have one sheet of Easki laying around somewhere if the Dog didn't eat it. |

I sheeted this sort of like the Dumas Me-109 which it will hang with. |

Parts and pieces, I like the idea of spending 10 bucks for a kit that doesn't require 120 bucks in materials to look decent. Guillow's quality shows through the simple kit. Decent plastics, decals all for a decent price. |

Fuselage completed. Needs some struts for the windshield and a radial nine cylinder. I doubled the longerons at the fuselage base and used 1/16 X 1/8 instead of the nice soft Dumas balsa. This is a hanger, not a flyer so beefed it up a tad to help with the tissue. |
