Keep at it Drew, you are almost there! Despite all the challenges She's looking very nice; I had a similar experience with a Roden DIII which, after many crises, turned out quite nicely. Great work and persistence thus far!
Cheers,
Lance

Upper wing attached without incident (phew!), last photoetched details added, and now ready for rigging.

Thanks again!
Not a lot of time the last few weeks, but I did finally get the radiator piping installed, made from a paper clip, and start the rigging.  It was a pain routing the lines through the
fuselage instead of through the wing, but  I think it was worth the effort.  I drilled up through the bottom of the wing and angled a hole from the top through the fuselage, here covered nicely by Eduard's photoetched pieces.
