ORIGINAL: Termites Dream

Ed, wish mine looked as good as yours at this point I glued W8 and then adjusted the adjacent rib in the outer wing panel to match W8. You can do this when you glue in the plywood washers (donuts) so the outer wing panels have the right amount of droop.
The rear of 5 and 7 sucks. I had to break and readjust a couple of them later to make the right fit. The back part of the nacelle is not really scale anyway, as Sweeper pointed out, it is too oval rather than being more round in the full scale. But you wont notice it unless you are competing in top gun.
I am still waiting on Robart, they are holding me up!

David-
I appreciate the compliment because I find myself somewhat embarrassed to post some of the pics because I wish my workmanship was as good as some of the others Ive seen.
I am looking forward to your report on the electric retracts. I decided I wont purchase mine until then- Maybe the extra 200 will be worth not dealing with air lines and loss of air pressure at the most inopportune times.
