Default RE: G & L Hobbies Extra 300 build thread

As you can see in the first pic is all that it comes with except the wood and I forgot to include the landing gear which is nice looking aluminum.
The next pic is of the cowel. I went ahead and cut out the air holes which took all of 20 min. with a Dremmel tool.
Pic three is another shot at a different angle. Notice the nice wheel pants?
Pic 4 is a inside shot of the fusealage. As you can see I got excited a installed the landing gear block out of 1/4 in aircraft grad ply. A little note, I almost messed up here and got ahead of myself. There is a bulkhead tha gets installed before the landing gear block gets put in. Then you install the block and tie it into the bulkhead. This will all eventually get tied into the firewall for added strength. I made up the rest of the bulkhead templates and am waiting on my wood order to arrive sometime this week. As soon as I get it I will follow up with more pics building processes.
