Finished fitting the cabin frame yesterday, wow what a task but its done now.Tonite I start on fitting the firewall which I am sure will have a few curved balls waiting for me but sure it will work out.Plans building and to an extent a kit build you have to massage the parts so to say to get it all in place and lined up.I must do a few photos and update my page as well
OK then it seems I am on the right track leaving f. fuselage pending; what have you completed to this point?
Hi Paul seems we are on the same page in the building process; after I finish riveting forward fus., I am thinking of postponing the joining of it to rear fuselage due to space limitation in my house; I don't see a problem jumping to wings...do you?
Hi Jonathan, my build has gone slow this last year due to moving house 3 times!!!
Just got the rear and forward fuselage joined now working on the cabin frame and firewall forward panels.
Hope 2016 I can have my plane up and flying and if not its no problem it will fly when its ready
