| So...I sanded the tops of the nacelles flatter and doing so also flattened out the rest of it around the upper half which made it look a lot more like it should. I'll probably leave the bottom as it is. Scale wheels for the Lancaster would be 2 1/8". These are 2" wheels made by Sullivan from Tower Hobbies. |

| Spending time contemplating what has been built, it seems that the engines are pointed down. So I cut out the engine plan and taped it on the fuselage plan and since I built to the plan.....yep! You can see the difference in the centerlines for the two and it's the same with the outboard engine, as well. Also, the top of the nacelles should be basically flat but I built in the curve shown by the green line. That also causes the bottom to be off. |

| Another coat of filler and some sanding are in order before starting the doping but what needs to be done needs to be done outside and the weather has turned too nasty to be comfortable and call it a hobby. Guess I'll chill for a bit... |
