I used canopy glue to attach the acetate “windows” and then added the frayed tapes. They’ll be painted once the inspection “windows” in the wings and the aileron connecting wires are in place and taped.



I’ve bolted the fin to the fuselage and added the tail plane support wires; they should be solid wires but I decided to use fishing trace because it would make life easier if / when I have to alter the incidence of the tail plane. I don’t know what it is but they just don’t look right, so much so that they’ll have to be changed, if it means more trouble later on I’ll just have to live with it; I think I’ll get some 24swg piano wire and hope that looks better.
