Just a quick update with a few work bench photos; installed the struts and got the upper wing on yesterday. The aileron wires from fuselage to wing and also on the control horns have yet to be painted.
...................and a couple of closer shots. The struts (installed in the fuselage first) attachments were superb, went in in perfect alignment and nice and solid. Once the fuselage connections were dry I first attached the triple cabanes to the upper wing (also an excellent fit), then worked in the single aft cabanes and, once dry, "popped" in the "N" Struts. The assembly is surprisingly strong and rigid once completed. A really well thought out Kit design.
Hopefully today will see the rudder installed and tail rigging completed and then some lifting handles and a step installed. After some touch ups and installing the landing gear she should be ready for the Completed Section.
Cheers,
Lance
