I am back!

I am still looking for a job but also I am on holidays from 14th onwards!

as a consequence, I will be able to give a little progress on the project...

I have some progress on rudders and wings....

the body 3d design for the mold making is almost ready for cutting...

If everything goes ok I should have stab, rudders, wings ready for scale detailing and body stated by 31st dec 05...
after that, I will have to stop and really get a job...

Wait a minute. 11/13 you're very busy at work. Now on 12/9 you are looking for a job? Did we miss something? Hope this doesn't mean you are unemployed.

Do you get to take the CAD program and/or data with you? Or do you lose the use of it?

If I may ask, do you work in Engineering or Drafting/CAD or other field?
