4 more cross members, top and bottom to go. This ain't Guillow's... The curvature of the top and bottm longerons precluded pinning the entire structure down to the plan, so I measure and cut. Anybuddy see anything glaringly wrong? And Poppy, you're right. This is the Comet kit that you remember with the 54" wingspan. It's a beast, right out of the box. It's teaching me a whole lot of humility. I just thought I was smart, building all these big planes...

I used the same technique on my Jug. Constantly re pinning on the plan along the curve. Good job!

Beautiful work Bill, very clean!

Thanx, Guys! I have the rest of the cross members on now, and am trying to figure out how to install the nose formers. They're a bit more conventional, like I'm (Guillow's) used to... Trying to hold onto the fuse without destroying it.
