Looks awesome all together and painted! Next you'll have to post some video for all of us to share in the experience. :-)

Congratulations! Nice looking bird. I am also building a Cruzer and am considering the Viking engine. Would you be willing to share your W&B documentation with us?

Thanks John. To bad the fuselage is already painted.

Congratulations from South Australia. Even more encouragement for us following. I added additional crossed 'L' angles, first two bays aft of baggage wall, all around Fuselage and additional nose/tail 'L's in ceiling of baggage compartment. Seemed to stiffen skins up a fair bit, reduced flip/flop. Not yet tested in practice, of course. Will post photos.

She flew very well as expected. Although I am experiencing some oil canning in the fuselage. Thinking what to do about it.

That's great! Good job on getting her airborne.
