Dave,

Thank you for your comments. I can't see the guide tubes in my "90F" well enough to see if there are kinks, but I know that the amount of drag I can feel is not a good thing.... so those tubes are coming out. I'll probably use Vince's approach to the wing hold downs and yours for the bottom hatch cover. Still waiting for the orange covering material to be delivered.... I'd really like to get this thing into the air next weekend. Will post a few photos of the finished bird.
