Default 109

Brian, The PCM 109 is coming along nicely. I just updated my webpage last night with new construction pics:

Ive got the bird mostly primered and Im currently doing surface detail such as the various bumps and blisters associated with 109s. Try making a rack to fit your thunderbolt. Use sched 40 PVC, make it so the fuse cradle hugs the bottom of the fuse where the wing mounts. Also, one of the wing saddles on the mount will have to be higher than the other so that the wing fits over the horizontal stab and doesnt come into contact with it. Once you get it all built and it fits snugly and you have put the foam(The black pipe foam available at hardware stores), Go back and glue all the joints with PVC cement so that it does not come apart.

PS, I think Rabbit has an engine mounting problem.
