 Issue Number 100
Hi, In view of the fact that so much has yet to be covered, and only one final issue to do it in, do you think ( or perhaps know ?) if the magazine will be double the number of pages, and packed from start to finish with assembly instructions with no room for features ? Yet to be talked about :-
Wheel attachment, final rigging of aileron control wires, criss cross bracing wires between "cabine" struts and between U-carriage struts, attachment method of the struts to fuselage ( w pins ?) mounting of the engine assembly, mounting of the engine cowl, attachment of the propellor, mounting of the front fuselage metal shroud over the tank, mounting of the Spandaus, application of decals, I could keep going but it's getting a bit embarassing. ( Shame about the criss cross lattice rigging on each wing - I guess Hachette just regarded it as superfluous - They've ignored the folk who wanted to leave the airframe uncovered in favour of their red clingfilm !!)
