| Some more progress today. The basic fuse & float are done. I did find a set of Willis Nye Drawings that show most of the details that I was looking for, including the operation and geometry of the L/G, which is a very good thing. Now if I can find a set of photos of the cockpit(s) I will be smiling. |

| AS it is a miserable rainy day today, I slapped teh Fuse framework together. The structure is 1/8" sq. Basswood. Since I don't have to worry about flying wieght, but I do worry about getting ham-handed at times, the extra durability might come in handy down the road. |

| The Porter is a large plane! THese are both designed by Howard, Kittyfritters, and are both great kits. |
