heywooood | 26-Aug-18 01:00 | you're reminding me this was such a big project made more difficult just by the complexity of this fuselage. I think the kit was engineered really well - it's that the Tomcat was an incredible design. I had mounted the leading edges here too low by 1/16" or so..somehow - so I ended up attaching a 1/16"x 1/4" balsa strip to the top of it. contour sanding the forward LE where it blends into the intake is tricky..you're a ways from that point here. |
Don C | 26-Aug-18 10:14 | You're right, it's really a well thought out kit. The instructions take you right along, but occasionally they're a bit vague. The leading edge is a good example.I've got the bottom formers glued on and am starting the stringers. |
