10.00 and we're ready to go. As you can see the two seater has an extra sprue for the wingtip tanks.

Image

After half an hour the tanks and rear fuselage have been assembled.

Two hours in and the fuselage is all together.

Image

Like AndrewR's single seater the fit between the front and rear fuselage sections leaves something to be desired and will need some filler.

After painting the inside of the intakes I fitted the outer halves. One will need some filler at the rear but not a bad fit.

Image

I've started painting the seats and undercarriage while the upper surface of the wings have been sprayed white. I'll check the fit of the wings later to see if I can fit them after the fuselage is painted.

Image

I've noticed that there hasn't been much music this month so here we go;

Had a break for something to eat. Today is Dolmio day as I had a bowl of pasta.

Image

Since then I've applied some filler to the various gaps.

Image

I've checked the fit of the wings and they are a good fit so I'll attach them after the fuselage is painted to save on masking. :)

Meanwhile, time for a dance .
