Default RE: PERIGEE Prototype Kit Build

OK guys, I've kind of backed off the Perigee build because its been over 100 degrees in the shop lately. Us fat boys tend to sweat!! Well, I got out this morning and did some rough sanding on the fuselage. Here are the pics. Notice the nose gear is at the original location as per the original.

I have not finished carving our the engine area as I've not quite decided on a power plant. I had been leaning toward the OS 32 but have a older OS 40FSR that I may use. Boy there is a lot of sanding to get her to this point and some more needed to get her to final stages. I elected not to use the vacumn formed cowl top and filled it with balsa. Most likely Dan will offer it with the cover as he will pull from my original. Now to the tail......
