A couple of squares, long and short rulers, and someone who can come round and give you pointers..

I'm also going through my first kit build!

Wish I had someone for pointers. I am on my own. Well not really, you guys are being more than helpful :) I will compile a list and grab things before Wednesday...
Thanks again.

Just ask if you need any help. I've built one so I should know how to get you through any problems.

You list looks good to me. Have you decided on an engine? Are you going to do a build thread? I would love to see a build of this aircraft from someone else to see how they do things, and its your first kit, always gotta do a thread on the first!!!!!!

Happy building!!
