UStik,


See blue arrow, did you mean this!, Top Flite Drawing.
The tank retainer will keep the fueltank in position.

And I did not speak about elevator bell cranks but aileron levers.

Repeat UStik >>>>>>
I'm still musing about a hint given by Duane. He mentioned the doublers on the fuselage sides noticeable in #1 fuse but not in #2. I think there's the diagonal outline aft of the trailing edge former in #2 (the doublers had this diagonal grain orientation. Maybe the doublers are really there but the fuse was still not strong enough, so even more doublers were added, now with longitudinal grain orientation.

Was this in message of me?, fuse #2 has probably only doublers to give the TE dowel "body".
The doublers in fuselage 1 are drawn in the Top Flite plans.
