Default RE: Skybolt hangar and clubhouse

Yep, exactly what happened to me, except I had the front all closed in. It was a rather shocking development. I couldn't bend the front cabanes much at all since they were all soldered and buried, so I bent the interplane ends a bit back and readjusted the slope of the ends so the incidence would be correct, and then I sanded a little off the leading edge of the wing. I think it will be OK now.

I just realised I put the short dihedral brace on the back instead of the long one so I have had to slather it with CA debonder and pry it off. On step backward. Oh well, its not the first thing I have screwed up. I also spend a fair amount of time looking for things that I misplace or drop on the floor.
