Superworm, that is super what you have done so far. I like it alot. Very...very nice touch with the hingeline on the elev. Also, good pics together with good explanations on how you did it. I would love such a hingline on my model but think it is simply to advanced for my limited experience. Also I am planing on going the light weight route on this one...

However having a cut out cowl to get access to the engine sound like music to me...no Superworm not Agnetha just music...
As meantioned before, I did order the fiberglass cowl and pants with this kit. Obviously, if there is a nice and easy way of getting an access hatch to the engine compartment that is not too heavy I would like to have one. I am planing to have the engine mounted inverted so in this case it would be an alternative to open up the lower part of the cowl for access.
Much appreciated that you are offering your help for my coming build as this most certainly will be needed. I will ask you as i progress and my intentions are those that anyone following this thread can see what stage I am at.

Yes, a smoke system will be needed. I was looking a Slimline muffler and smoke system but really have not decided yet what system I will go for.

I have hooked myself up with one of the Skydivers at my Skydiving club to help me out vaccum sheet the wings. This guy is a aeroplane technician instructor with the keys to the school where he works at (access 24/7). He said they have a 2000 liter airtank at the school used for the students laminating classes. We are planing to laminate my wings on a weekend. Hopefully this will work out without any snags and hopefully I will get myself a set of super lite wings with a minimum amount of resin used. *fingers crossed*

More later,
