Hi guys....some pics of my Zero from down under.I bought the kit in 1990,and have spent time off and on over the years.I am really making a great effort now to finish it,and it is getting close.Have to admit I have built 7 other planes since I started the Zero..At the moment I am in the process of glass skinning it and have the wings done,and the tail feathers.To day have spent time making the bottom half of my pilot out of blue foam.Have fitted Spring air retracks with Robart scale wheels and oleo spring legs.Have started making up the exhaust system and intent to have all 11 pipes working. Yes have to admit the plane is a labour of love sanding all the balsa away but the end result is good.I have machined the wing guns out of aluminium tube as with the pitot tube.At the moment the weight is 8.6lbs.all up.The landing gear doors I made up of fiberglass,and as yet have to fit. Power super tiger. 61
