Nice work on the engine, Reinhard @grimreaper A good choice to mount the barrels at a much later stage.
wings and fuselage joined one has a different dihydral than the other one, corrected it by inserting some plastic sheet and do some filling
starting with the landing gear

Solid progress and good correction, my friend @grimreaper!
Nice correction, Reinhard @grimreaper Such a complex landinggear on the Wildcat.
Reinhard Spreitzhofer (@grimreaper) Your Dad is making some very good progress with the Wildcat. I enjoyed building mine. I built it as a "Yellow Wings" plane that was on display at the Worlds Fair in 1940. The kit itself was a nice fit. The only thing I remember that gave me some trouble was the landing gear. It looks like you Dad has figured it out. Well done !
some more progress gonna do it wothout drop tanks, filled the holes with plastic rods
solid progress, my friend @grimreaper!
Nice correction on the holes, Reinhard @grimreaper
