Thanks, I am pretty pleased with it so far. I have a few touch ups on the paint that need to get done, just have to go to the auto paint store to buy some touch up paints, and another can of the red to do the cowl and wing tips. I am having some trouble with dripping paint, I try to have a smooth finish, but it is not that easy to achieve, the three color scheme is a bit of a pain, but it will work out I am sure.

I am now ready to mount the cowl, it is not perfect, but pretty good, again there are some touch ups that I need to do, but don't have the materials for it now.

The cowl is a 2 piece, I used some CA, then strips of fiberglass cloth with epoxy on the inside, then a mixture of epoxy and micro balloons to smooth out the seams, that still needs a bit of work, I have to work a bit more to get it perfect.

The weight of the plane will be about 15 lbs, maybe 16, well within the MFG suggested range of 14 - 18, I am really excited about the prospect of flying it THIS season. A bit nervous because I have only flown a .40 size trainer for one season and am not sure I have the skills for this plane yet!
