Default RE: Blue Angel - Build

View of the right and left wing panels with the aileron stock on both wings sanded to shape. The trailing edge strip is 3/32” square bass wood. Due to the airfoil shape of the wing, the sanding of the aileron surface works the back edge of the bass wood down to less than 1/16” making a nice sharp edge. When the sanding is done the surface of the bass wood has a seamless flow into the balsa aileron.

I’m having so much fun building the Blue Angel I feel like I do not want the process to end!
