Default RE: CMP Cessna 182 Skylane

Haven't flown the Cessna yet as it is still being built. I noticed that there are a couple of wing joiners that are used but they are way too big. I had to drill holes a little bigger. Alot is taken for granted building the Cessna in that if you have never put an arf together, you'd be in way over your head. If I get real lucky, I may fly it tomorrow as the wind is supposed to be around 5 or 6 mph with 48 degree temps.
Depends on how much I get finished. The engine gets mounted sideways in this plane. I may have to do some cutting on the cowl in order to be able to get at the glow plug and fuel lines. Like I said, quality isn't bad but the instructions I think a lacking a little.
