Very nice paintwork indeed, Allan @kalamazoo

Thanks Spiros, John and Colin, frames are not too bad, --------
tail planes on again, drilled and pinned with .015" bronze wire, super glued in place.

Those pins should definitely hold the tail planes, Allan @kalamazoo
Great work.

Nice paintwork, Allan @kalamazoo

Wow @kalamazoo - Im honestly astounded at this. I built this a few months ago and nearly gave up because of the canopy. The fit was aweful and every time I'd get one side down then try the other side it would pop off, Mine has massive gaps all over.
I'm really amazed and impressed on how well yours turned out. amazing work.

I remember getting one started more than 30 years ago, and I made a "hot-pull" form where I filled and sanded the original and used it as a template for a heat-stretched piece of clear. I never finished it, but it would be great if we could get a vac-form AM part for it.

Proceeding really nice, my friend @kalamazoo!
