Default RE: 1/2 Scale Fokker D-8

With Rhinebeck coming up I would like to try and get the wing finished. This will require a lot of work. Work means a lot of time, in which there really is not a lot of in the warm months.
My goal, if it comes true would be to install radio equipment in the wing, cover it with the plywood, stain and varnish, plus get the markings on. By September 7th, Oh yes and build a 15 ft. storage box for the wing. I promise I will give it an honest attempt. I have been back at it for about three nights and have managed to mount the wing, build the back cabane struts, and start on the plywood for the ailerons. So far so good. This weeks nights I hope to get the ailerons finished and start cutting the wings plywood.
