Thank you Warren and James for your very kind words, they are very much appreciated.

I have fitted the tail booms to the wings, the booms will be painted at a later date. The tail plane is also assembled but not fitted to the booms at this stage. I have also fitted all the brackets to the tail ready for the rigging wires.

Yet another extraordinary build, Des. I gain so much inspiration from your work and when I show my non-modelling French friends what people like you can achieve, their jaws drop.

Best wishes

She's really starting to look the part now Des. The booms look superb.

Cheers,

des,
Your build is really looking great! The booms and tail surfaces have really added the final touch to making her look like an Aircraft! Stunning work as always!
