She now has a landing gear. It was built with 1/4 inch and 1/8 inch plywood and 5/32 music wire now has a landing gear. It was built with 1/4 inch and 1/8 inch plywood and 5/32 music wire




nowI am putting the sheeting on the bottom. I have installed the 1/4 inch square center stringer and the 3/16 inch square glue blocks on the fuselage edge. I am using 1/8 inch balsa for the sheeting. Because of the angles involved on the bottom, I am sheeting it in sections and doing a lot of sanding. For filling in the seams and cracks I use a product called Paint and Patch. I get it at the Home Depot for about $3.00 a tub. It is real easy to work with and sands well when it dry's.
