SNAKE STUKA

After receiving all of the accesories that Ziroli offers for the stuka I decided to start cutting out the kit.I would like to thank the Zirolis for giving me the parts for the stuka.First I traced all the parts onto the wood and then I cut them out.Now I am ready to start building.

Go Snake....looking forward to another nice Stuka from your factory....I will be rebuilding the FW190 wing over here at Kurt Tanks factory

SNAKE STUKA

Here is my progress.I have the center section and wing panels framed up with the top of left panel sheathed.I built maple blocks for the robart landing gear and got them fitted.The landing light is complete and working.Thanks for all of the encouraging comments that help me stay up late to finish this bird by Texas.

Amazingly clean work area,,,,

The wing is finally coming together.I finished all of the surfaces for the wing and have most of the linkage complete and functioning with the radio.

I have almost finished sheathing the bottom of the wing.The light was purchased at Home Depot.

With lots of work left and very little time before Bomber Field I called my 11 year old daugthter
to help.To my amazement she can sand and epoxy the cloth very well.We accomplished fully covering the wing top and bottom plus all of the surfaces.

Looking at the second picture it looks like a West Systems can in the background. That's what I used when I glassed the tubes on my High Power rockets.
