I apologize for not checking in here sooner. It’s been close to a month since I’ve been active on here. Sorry
I’m guessing the two little parts P-40 and P-41 are supposed to capture the elevator once it is installed. I believe that it goes over the rod that connects the two elevator halves together. Then the rudder and PE would go on next.
I think that we all have done this before or something very similar to what you have done with your wheel wells. I’ll take some luck any day !
The modeling Gods were smiling on you.
I am not a big fan of using three or five different parts when one very nice one would work just as well. Makes it a bit “fiddly”.
But in the end the results are looking great. I’m very happy to hear that you are making good progress and I sincerely appreciate your detailed photos and descriptions. They are going to be very helpful in the future for the rest of us that have a kit like this one in their stash and are going to be building it.
Take care my friend and keep it going. I’m looking forward to seeing your next steps.
