Default RE: Balsa USA Super Cub Build

It's too cold to work on my car so the Cub is back on the bench. The stub wings on top of the fuselage didn't match the wings very well so I build the area up with Aerolite filler. This is a Stits product similar to Sig Epoxylite however the Aerolite sands much easier. The inner ribs provided with the kit are either too small or I made a mistake along the way. I had to fill about 1/4" on both ribs so I decided to Aerolite instead of regular balsa filler, it takes a little longer but won't fall out.
I'm finishing off small details like the window flanges and variuos pieces I left out to make working inside the fuselage easier, I hope I don't forget anything!
