Copper States Models N-17 late version Completed
« on: February 05, 2019, 12:02:23 PM »
It was a very hard choice on picking something from the stash for the tribute on Des's memories . So I order myself WNW Halbie late version . There was a few issues , but Dave came through and got things shorted and my kit is on the way .
I wanted something very special and Copper States kit won and is my entry .

Looking forward to this as I have the same kit and I'm already following all the builds - ruthlessly seeking hints and tips...

Thanks guys  :)


I made a start by cutting the bags open and smelling the plastic ! Then it was droll over the parts for bit before I started cutting the wing parts free and the engine . Top wing is glued up and drying making this easy for the rest of the clean up . Clean up on engine is next followed by paint .
