Thanks Tony, no real problems and a more experienced plane builder will breeze through it, no major fit issues a bit of sanding and some and clamps and tape can't deal with,was a bit of warping on the top part of one wing but supporting either end and placing a weight in the middle while the glue dryed overcome that.nose cone could have fitted a bit better but think that's down to me taking the tape off a bit to soon and the 40g weight pulled it apart a little,but live and learn.Fantastic work mark , its looking superb . Loving following this as its all helpful stuff for when i get round to starting mine . So far it looks like its been a fairly trouble free build , great for a kit that a lot of people would disregard straightaway because of the toolings age and raised panel lines. Me? I just love these old Monogram kits and raised lines dont put me off , you just need a bit more patience cleaning up seams to try and preserve them . looking forward to the next instalment , cheers tony
