Outstanding work on the wing fix!  I knew this wouldn't slow you down.

I don't know what he said but I would most likely agree  8) Beautiful interior! The observer certainly sat in a precarious position!

3 sides of the fuselage are asembled:



I had to enlarge the upper part of the fuselage. It has been quite hot because cyano glue doesn't apreciate torsions at all...
Well it is done now, but anyway, putty and sand paper will be use...
