got another couple of coats of polyc on the fin, rudder, tailplane and elevators today.
need to look at finishing the main wing tomorrow/wednesday and get that covered.
then we can paint it all and decide what motor to fit.
be done by the weekend ready to test, provided this blinking rain ever stops.
some drought we are having in surrey.

well today i have:-
fitted the wing strut fixings to the main wing
covered the main wing
fixed the wing strut mounts to the fuselage
finished covering the fuselage.

got 2 more coats of poly c to do on the wing and fuse, then i can finish off the paint and give it all a final seal.
just leaves the motor and nose to sort.
be another one out of the way.

spit next i think.
