Rear cowl has been trimmed and front engine mounted. I'm playing around with the fuel tank locations a little bit to keep them from interfering with the throttle pushrods.

I suffered my first injury from this plane the other day while cutting a hinge slot in one of the rudders. I saw it coming, and I thought, "Oh, I'll just break the rule of 'Never cut toward yourself' this once and just for a second!" Now I have a nice, deep x-acto knife slice in my left hand...

So, I still really need some advice on what to do about the wing plug-in issue!
