| Productive day, but a sore back. Wings infilled. The 2 open slots are where the landing gear are mounted. Question for everyone: My LHS closed a couple of years ago. Have to order suplies on line. The balsa I have received is very hard . Any ideas where to get good balsa? |

| Finally had a fair amount of time. Stringers on, diagonals removed and infill started.. Looks like it's going to work fine. |

| Basic fuselage pretty well done. Wings under way. $ ribs and a 1/8 inch leading edge are pretty light, so I sutci in the diagonals for a bit more strength. Starting to apply stringers. Scratched a center rib for each wing and glued it at an angle |

| Some progress, albeit slow. Too many other irons in the fire. |

| Bottom is original plan, top is from a 3 way I found and Poppy's .Bth shape and airfoil are quite different. |
