This is turning into one of the most beautiful and well built Vac Kits I can remember having seen!

Hard to believe that's a vac Kit, Dan, you are doing a superb job on it. It's going to be absolutely striking when complete.
Cheers,

Thanks, Folks, for your helpful hints and encouragement.  This guy is in the home stretch now!

Got this done today.  All that's left is a few relaxing nights of rigging ;-)




Of course...lots of little things too but with the wings on, life is good!  ;D ;D

Thanks for looking!

A spectacular looking model Dan, having the wings now show it's true size, I'm looking forward to seeing the rigging.

Dan, the AEG is looking amazing!  What will you be using for the rigging
material?  She's certainly a stunner!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

HI Ernie and thanks for the message!

I just finished rigging this morning and simply used EZ line.  The wings are super strong as is with aluminum spars so the rigging really isn't functional.  I'll post something later tonight as I still want to get the control surfaces rigged as well.

Cheers,

Dan
