Status: offline 		At first I was just gonna ditch the old cosmic minnow for a new one. which I partially did by ordering a new plane. But looking at the plane its really not that bad. It may be a good time to recover in another color and repaint the fuse. The problem is the fuse behind the wing is all cracked. its holding together but the paint it chipping off. What type of fiberglass should I use to reinforce this area from the inside? and what would I use to fill in the cracks before repainting?

Also its kinda strange that I cant find the replacement tank for the minnow as the old one is now cracked. Is that something I have to write to GP about?

Thanks,
Erik

Cheers
