Default RE: Hostetler Extra 300XS 27%, 33% or 40%

OK - I received the cowl, canopy, wheel pants, and LG fairings from Fiberglass Specialties. Will need to do some sanding and a little filling here and there. I got all the ribs cut out and attached the jig blocks... Just waiting on 1/4 inch X 48 inch bass stock to start on the wing. I also added 1/4 inch balsa to the trailing edges of the vertical and horizontal stabalizer and shaped them. There's definately enough throw on the rudder and elevator now! I have to build up the leading edges of the rudder and elevator counter balances to match the stabs.

Till I get my 1/4 inch bass, I'll start sheeting the fuse!
