nice Hellcat ADW...this should put an end to the recent 'unpleasantness' I think

It looks fully functional WRT control surfaces, landing gear, etc..

Stars always point north on the fuselage and forward on the wings...

on a related note:

Red, Left, Port...the three shortest words vs. Green, Right, Starboard the three longer words (as a way to remember which nav lights go where)
...you made that out of a box of sticks..?
...what is WRONG with you!

Thank you both for your kind words.

looks like we may have a little problem...

My aunt accidently put another hole in it(last time it was a purse droped on my finished wing)

its happened so many times now, its forgive, repair, and forget

no one has a delicate touch in my family, sooo there are dangers everywhere.

anyways, looks like a couple of snapped stringers. at least it is in between formers, and didnt affect harder to repair items such as my paper access ports or plastic bits.

O well. Nothing for me to do but repair it. I cant have my plane look like that can I?

Geez Alex, what did you do to your aunt to make her so mad at you? :lol: Only thing I can suggest is if you get a new puppy, wait until it's full grown before you show your Aunt.
