You've seen the principle now it is time to do the same forrest of the bottom half ....

The following formers were aligned and then glued in place then wecut a small section of the central wing to measure the wing angle.

So far everything seems okay, but the foam is not rigid enough to be absolutely sure.

The area of the location of the wing has been achieved through the patterns of the wing and the cutting wire.

The base of the wing is perfect and the incidence has been controled.
Note that the wingtip has been shuttered for ensuring rigidity when measuring the angle.

Here a delicate area of processing soft shape between square at the rear of the wing to the round fuselage.

The cut was made on Hotwire between formers it will of course be sand.

Also the front is better but needs more work.

The lower part is almost over we position the right angle on the air intake.

With a good dose of putty to get the correct shape

Viewed from a slightly higher, symmetry looks to be respected.

On the back, we stuck up the spur, and after many sessions of putty shapes begin to be harmonious.

This is another view to see that the line begins to be respected.

Even if this image is not a good quality we can better seen the entrance of air to fuel the engine even at high angles like for take off.

Next step is fiberglass and resin, before to remove the bottom part from the worktable.

Cutting the fiber twill 80g/dm2 two layers will be needed to maintain the bottom.

Rear section with the fiber and resin

Half lower belly fully fiber glassed

Front part glassed

The next step will be to cut down the bottom half from the work plan.

Thanks to Christian and his son Jean for this work which has not been very easy

We therefore take this opportunity to make a cradle that nothing happens for the rest of the building.

Thank you to Jean-Claude that came to Christian's house to cut with hot wire the cardle.
In the photo below you can see how much we failed the fiber from the bottom, there are a lot of folds ... and how much time of work to catch up with all that eh Christian???

That day's work is finished, the supports are cut and pasted the same board that serves as our work plan.

This looks like the hull of a sailboat at this stage rather than a plane, we'd gone wrong????

A last one to show the supports gluing with the lower half in place. Seals are used to effectively apply during the drying time.

The next step will be interesting with the assembly of the upper half.

To go faster, Christian has tested a new way of working:

He glues few blocks of foam and then cut it with the hot wire, building on the formers then he sand the rest. This technique allows to work very quickly and make a minimum of dust.

Another angleviewof the rear fuselage. Now it looks like an airplane.

After a first layer of putty to fill the holes.

We will have to wait until it dries to sand it and to make a second layer of an other putty easier to sand.

Front part of the fuselage the cockpit on it.Forward fuselage and on the bubble.

On the bubble the same technique as the fuselage was used.

A plan was made and then the formers have been put on the plane, and then we filled between each pair of formers.

Side view of the volume is impressive.
