The doors are cut from a gift card and are taped to the strut for a look see. The actual doors will be balsa.

The gear pieces are not together yet and the gear is in only for fitting.

The wing, stabilizer, and fin have been glued on. Filler still needed between fin and fuselage.

The silkspan didn't adhere to the inner stringers so....I used the tip of my xacto blade and made several small holes along the stringer and then put on a small amount of CA and used my finger to press it into place, an operation best done quickly

A second coat of filler was applied to the wing and fuselage and sanded smooth. Then two coats of nitrate dope was applied and sanded smooth. The bottom was then wet covered and given two coats of dope and the bottom fin pieces were glued in place on either side of the wire. This first side section is 3 1/2" wide.

The bottom is ready for covering. Two balsa pieces fit on either side of the tailwheel wire and will be added when covering is finished.
