Progress report on the fuselage build.

It went straight forward, no significant problem except with the nose and its inner part, a little bit tricky to adjust but in the end it's OK.
You can notice that, inside the part 5 of the fuselage, a row of iron nails has been glued. This band of nails is flexible enough to follow the curve of the fuselage. Since this model does not have a landing gear and is intended for a display on a stand, this stand will be equipped wit a magnet. This way the model will be easy to remove from the stand. I've never used this method ... I hope it will work. I have already spotted on web shops various magnets that would fullfill the size and strength needed for this use.
