Nice looking plane. I hope my paint scheme looks as nice.

Yes, the kit is still available from Sig.

Made a little progress. I have been busy installing new windows in my house. Replaced 14 and have the big front picture window left to do. Then I have to put up the new siding - 22 sq.This is getting expensive. But here are some more pics.

1. Put in the cross member to hold the rudder pull-pull wires,
2. Mounted the horizontal stab and triangle stock on the underside.
3. Mounted the fuel tank and a removeable cross brace. I am using 5/32" tygon for the fuel feed and 1/8" for the vent and fill plumbing.
4. Trial mounted the engine, Turnigy 52cc, to determine throttle servo location. Flipped the carb over to make the throttle arm easier to hook up. I replaced the original arm with one from Jody as suggested - it is very nice.
5. Put on side blocks where the fuse sections are joined so that I can seam the coveriningaft of the cockpit. I will use one piece of matterial for the sides and top. Then use four pieces for the aft fuse - 1 top. 2 sides, and 1 bottom.
