It sounds as if you were in a dark place yesterday... but it looks that way too and the black looks promising. I'm sure you'll find a rewarding way forward!

Thank-you Kevin and Fredrik , moving forward I will have to be very careful handling the fuselage . The resin is very very thin in a few areas and is now very prone to cracking at the join lines . I had to reinforce the top decking . Once the cowl is finally glued in place it will add pit more strength to it all . Working on the landing gear now and it is looking very promising on the first run of test fitting . Will have some more progress soon

It's coffee break !

She got legs now which went rather well actually . Didn't have any troubles . For the bungee cord I used ez-line .

Rest of the PE parts are in place and everything is now ready for primer ! Cowl and engine have their alum applied and I also made a start on the wood parts .

I used a few PE parts from the parts bin for the underside of the top wing and around the carb intakes .

Thanks SP , primer will be sprayed today and the silver/grey . The rest should be pretty quick now once things are painted and decalled up .
