Default spit

Mark, Your spit is looking fantastic! Your gear doors came out better looking than mine, great job so far. Dont forget to put additional mounting screws on the cowl, or the 3w will shake it right off. I used about 6 nylon 10-32 bolts per side of the cowl on mine. Also, make sure your retract rails are reinforced, as nosing over ( as this one will do from time to time) puts a heck of a strain on the wing and retract area. Mine is down right now because my upper wing skin above the retract has started to crack. I plan on fixing it sometime soon when I reach a good stopping point on the me109. Again, great work so far and keep it up!
