Assembling the Fuselage. This is a fairly straightforward stage, the finished cockpit, without the seat, is attached as is the fuel tank behind the cockpit. Whilst this is correct it isn't seen on the real aircraft but putting it in position provides a base for the build up of the fuselage decking. Don't forget the mechanism of the contra rotating props needs to be installed at tis stage but the blades and spinner can be added later. Make certain that the gears are well coated in vaseline. Also there is no need to put the tailwheel in at this stage but do ensure that its can be slotted in later.
Once the fuselage halves are really set firm the underside ports can be drilled out.
More soon.
