Good to see you moving along with this plane. I think you will have a fine CL flyer. I'm not sure why this kit is so seldom built, other than maybe folks questioning the canopy design. The one piece canopy is actually really strong, and provides an excellent mount for a removable wing. It's proven to be a stable, no frills flyer.

got the things i needed from the LHS. just gotta add some fuselage sheeting and get the LE of the wing sorted out and we will be just about ready for covering. really happy with the way its coming together.

1/8" ply and then 3/32" balsa for the motor mount. three bolts and lots of thick ca. that thing isnt going anywhere!

Where can I find the orange colored plastic items that are used to align the fuselage ribs?
