I started again to build on.
The axis wing on the bottom changes done.
Fuselage reduced by approximately 5mm, the end of re-sanded and filled, for the tailplane struts the holes (they are wrong !;).
Tailplane and rudder new representation of the ribs on the right site attached with thin drawn threads.
What is missing is the connection between the two rudders and the control horns.
Cheers
Martin

The fuselage end is ready sanded.
Shortened lower wing at each end by just 2mm and sanded.
Reduced middle wing to size and glued the parts. For the struts attached new and old holes with putty closed.
Elevator, rudder and aileron completed. All can now be pivoted.
Cheers
Martin

I have only just caught up with this one Martin - I remember making this as a teenager, but nothing like the standard that you are building to. This is truly first class workmanship - more detail than I can properly take in. A tribute to you supreme modelling skill.
