Default RE: 10 ft PC6 Turbo Porter

Good to see your progress.

I am a bit slowed down but have been doing some work on the fuselage as well. I was also going to cover the balsa with 3/4 oz fiber glass which I have already received. I need to learn the procedure for putting it on smoothly. I have never done fiber glass covering before and do not want to make a mess of it. What type of resin do you use and how do you apply it? I can see you are a expert model builder. I don't think I would ever have the patience for detail like rivets - even though I would like to. My friend built his Porter with actual rivets on his all metal model. He is truely amazing!!!!

I am still debating about an engine. You have a great installation on yours.
