Continued work on the center section.

Right nacelle air scoop and ridge line.

Roughing in air scoop ridge. Next will be the filler to flair it to the wing.

Roughing in the tail cones. This was a lot of shaping and sanding with more to go.

Left nacelle air scoop.

Roughing in the ridge line and tail cone on left nacelle. Will use filler to smooth the transition to the wing. More work to do on the flaps to make them scale on their transition to the nacelle.

Center section frontal view. I am thinking of closing up the side hatch which was cut in when I was considering electric power for access to the required massive battery packs. If I do this, to get to the ignition battery, ignition unit, throttle servo and fuel tank in each nacelle the removable fire wall would be taken off the front for access.

Thinking about making the air scoops removable with switches, battery charge connections and re-fuel port on the top of the nacelle rather than on the side.
