well they fit anyway.
weather they work will remain to be seen.
need to bite the bullet and fit the wing tubes next, or i could do the main section to fuselage mounts.

Fleshed out the wing tips this morning.
and then started on the jet nacelles on the underside of the centre section.
Takes ages to get anywhere with this brute.

well i have added extra bracing round the wing tongue to give the sheeting something to stick to.
I then spent the rest of the day cladding the ribs that touch when the wings are joined.
the idea is to give a solid surface to help the joint stay true.

had a stressful day fitting the nose locating tubes.
but they are done now and the nose bolts on quite well.
need to cut the slot to take the wing tongue next and then i can start the wing fairing and finish sheeting the fuselage.

but if you don't try you will never find out and i dont like to play safe.
