Hello All. Thanks for all the thoughtful suggestions. Got a little stalled out this winter, but am now moving forward. Realized after building the fuselage that the version I started with was a sort of beta version of Jeff O's repaint I had downloaded several years ago. Went back and downloaded a fresh one, and the slipped trim lines were all fixed. So am now proceeding. As always with Aaron's models, the fit is terrific, and the pleasure of shaping the parts is great. Even without internal formers, the e complex shapes work beautifully. Here are some build pics up to now. Still a question or two about the nose gear, but will get to that later
