In the fuselage halves I glued the altimeter and compass on completion.
The tank is mounted on the front part.
In addition, here are lower surfaces separated and other parts attached to the bottom.

Great work, Martin.  That SSW is one of my favorites.  I think I might spring for the new kit but yours is real modeling!

Excellent.

Looking good Martin! I like your woodwork on the lower fuselage/wing.

The new wing ends are cut off. The ailerons must be still cut.
Mg-belt box finished and front upper cover continued.
Cockpit floor a large part is ready.
The control stik is anew built up, as well as the aileron steering.

Martin,
    You are really doing great detail work here, and also on the parallel D.IV Build. Like Patrick I wonder if you ever sleep! Very nice work, and always so very enjoyable to follow your progress.
Cheers,
Lance
