Don C, Comment for image # 41281 | 08 Aug 19 13:50 | Yes it is. Waiting for a flight report.

scigs30, Image # 41275 | 07 Aug 19 18:37 | Here she is ready for flight, all balanced out at 60 grams without landing gear. I used the paper decals from the kit and the horrible kit canopy pattern, should have used another kit canopy. |
scigs30, Image # 41274 | 07 Aug 19 18:36 | This old tissue was shrunk once before applying to remove the crease from the tissue being folded all those years. Even with that the tissue still shrinks alot as you can see from the bowing of the leading edge where there are no ribs. |

scigs30, Image # 41272 | 07 Aug 19 18:35 | Even this old domestic tissue goes on wrinkle free. |
scigs30, Image # 41271 | 07 Aug 19 18:34 | Everything covered ready for 2 coats of Sig Lite Coat Dope. |

scigs30, Image # 41269 | 07 Aug 19 18:33 | Here I am using the kit tissue on my P51, I cover the fuselage with 2 pieces of tissue covering wet. |
lukebozek1, Comment for image # 41247 | 06 Aug 19 14:23 | Thank you, I was wondering why that looked a bit different. You must have trimmed the tip of the rib to make it square, I will try that the next time. |
scigs30, Comment for image # 41247 | 06 Aug 19 10:23 | Lukebozek1, If I remember correctly I made some modifications to the Comet kit. I sheeted the nose and used 1/8sq for the leading edge. |
lukebozek1, Comment for image # 41247 | 06 Aug 19 08:04 | I have been working on the Dauntless and noticed that in the plans they use a 1/16 by 1/8 piece for the leading edge. What did you use? Looks just like this LE here. Beautiful work by the way. |
