I'd appreciate all the pics you can supply. I went back the other night and went through every pic in this thread. It was very helpful. It is funny how slow my tail guys are at building the tail. It would take you and I a couple of hours at most. THe wing is nearly done, the fuse is looking good, but the tail is taking tese guys forever. It's actually good because they seem to always be busy and have something to do. I'll do the final sanding on the tail prior to installation. I fear grooves where they might oversand. Would like to see a pic of your tail just below stab from the side. Still trying to locate an engine. Nothing is working out. I know this is going to be one of my favorite planes, but I just can't scrape up the funds for what she needs. I found a KB 65 with PItts, but the guy got it from another guy and has never started it. Fearful that it was somebody elses problem. I have a 76 Pitts for a GMS, but they are $99 new. I did find a deal on a JR MAx that has 6 channels, the door on the back has broken tabs, but it works fine. Beggers can't be choosers. We just had midterms, we have 4 1/2 weeks to finish the plane.
