Default RE: Build thread for a Carl Goldberg Eagle II Trainer??

Today I added the top spar and bottom center section sheeting to the left wing panel. The painters tape is stop any glue from leaking out of the joint keeping the fillet in place. I also began making up a wingtip from balsa shee and aileron stock. The angle at the bottom is to mate with the bottom of the rib while keeping the upward angle. The balsa sheet with the scores running across was needed to allow the the sheet to form more easily ove the curve. The scores will be on the bottom side and not seen. I am planning to put some bulkhead type braces inside.. I will post pics of this as it gets made. The wing is angled on the leading and trailing edges to allow the glue to set up against the spar and leading or trailing edge where the sheeting mates up. I also put the vertical stab together and did some rough shaping on it. The front and top need some rounding over.

The pic issue was somone has put the camera on 5mp instead of 1.1. So pics are positng correclty again.
