Cool Exhaust duct and rear assembly

Here are the forward, rear and the afterburner exhaust duct assemblies

I had to cut the rear frame inside to accommodate the duct

and here is the fuselage assembled

and since the duct is slipped into position from the rear, I added 4 L shaped card support that will bend forward when pushed by the duct. Those will act as springs, center the aft end and support the duct.

and the duct in place ( not yet glued, but you can if you want to at this point ).
