Hi jbakic:

Welcome to the "Contender" build thread. Would certainly like to see pics of your build progress. I have basically
completed the fuselage main frame as you can see in previous post. I am going to start on the cowling and begin building
the wing. I had to build the fuselage first because I was short 2 pcs. spar material for the wing. I have them now and
I am going to start in the next 3 or 4 days.

If you have read this thread, you will note that my "big" mistake, a real "Heart Stopper" was when I glued the firewall in upside down.

You are porbably a "pro" so you won't do things like that. This is my first kit, so after 2 nitro pills, 1 long drink of OJ, I proceeded to heat the 30 minute epoxy to remove the firewall. Really no problem. I am really careful now about the
orientation of the portion I am building at the time.

All of the guys contributing to this thread have been very helpful to me...... Just ask'em anything.
