Trimmed. |

Covering the center section first. Silkspan is put on wet and this is what it looks like when it dries. |

From the back. Next: tail feathers. This is the same size as the Cessna. |

Bottom and wing. |

Bottom stringers doubled and three additional stringers added to each side. That should do it. |

Making the windows using balsa and filler. Piece of cake. |

Wing and fuselage together. |

Stringers doubled on top. The nose is made from 1/2" balsa blocks. The section in front of the windshield is not on the plans. They say use a piece of 1/32" balsa to form it with no framework underneath. |

I cut all the ribs cause the ones in the kit are on very thin balsa. I doubled the number of ribs and have added lots of extra wood. Plans call for only two spars. |

Joining the sides. |

This is a Berkeley kit from 1948. |
