from the sublime of simon,s canberra build to the ridiculous of my trent meteor.

main fuselage section next to my sports model.
it's 80" long at the moment without the nose and rudder.

£6.00 of 6mm depron in there, so it is expensive.

cut the rest of the nose formers needed and stuck them on.
stuck some sheeting on the nose and i am now sitting in the living room cutting lots of holes.

stuck some sheet on the fuselage to stiffen it up so i can handle it easier.
cocked up a section near where the canopy will sit, i will have to re do that bit later.

might spend some time tomorrow framing up the cockpit area with balsa and get it ready for external sheeting with depron.
