Just thought I'd post a pic of this 85.5" Noorduyn Norseman that I am currently building for one of my students. I needed to take a break cause that CA is making me HIGH!!!

Hi fellow Canuck. Is it winter in Ontario already. So far the construction looks good. Look forward to you keeping us up to date.

I'll post some other pics later on tonight when the fuse is all done, then I'll move on and scratch build the floats.

AJF-2 You can be one of my students if you want but I'll be teaching you how to fly not build!

To be honest I'm not that crazy about building.. I'm basically doing this as a HUGE favour.

Here is some more pics of the progress..
This is after I finished making the wire landing gear out of thick wire stock and installing in the fairing/strut supports and the stringers that are under the landing gear fixture.

That looks like an Ikon N West kit. A true builders Kit. I have had the 90A Monocoupe and it was a great flyer. They are known for building good flying kits. (PS-I hate to build but love to fly, so we would get along fine!)
