Default Good Ol' Days?

Hey, some real modelers showing up here!

I am framing up the wing on the P-51 now. The old die-cutting was pretty good (except where they tried to die-cut the 1/4" tail surfaces), and the wing ribs fit the spars tightly, and line up better at the TE than most of the later computer-designed wonders! I am re-engineering it for retracts so burned some time there, but so far I am enjoying the woodworking, except the wood is so old and dry the CA is slow to "catch".

Good to hear from y'all!
