    Looking good, Erik (@airbum). It will be nice to have everything together and get some paint on it.

    Thanks for the nice comments @eb801, @fiveten, @johnb, @holzhamer and @gblair. This time more assembly actually takes place!

    "Engine" added

    I added the nose to the plane

    After some filling and sanding and filling and sanding the engine gets testfitted



    Some of the gaps will disappear when glued in, others need filling and filing and sanding and filling and filing and sanding
    Well, committed to glue

    and a few strips of tape to keep the rather heavy front on place after some generous amounts of contacta.

    As usual this one then gets it’s fair share of time to cure – hopefully it will reappear before another 9 months has passed

    It is good to see this one moving again, Erik (@airbum). Once the nose is fitted there won't be too much left to do.

    Good to see that you resumed work (or at least updates) on this unique and quite eccentric project Erik!
    Looking forward to see more steady progress soon
