Thanks, Sergio!

Testing the landing gear I found that the paper model was way higher than the plastic one. Taking measures, the original paper model is wrong. The nose strut is almost right, but the main landing strut is tooo long. The tail must be nearer of the ground, so near that a tail bump must have been very common landing this plane.
So, a scissor cut to the reinforcement wires and ready. Well, still too long but acceptable.

About the Stranraer, the squeleton is finished and I'm starting to desing the fuselage skin. The first published skin is going to be the full silver one of the 228 squadron, K7287, with the camouflaged one following close.
The squeleton is printed and I'm expecting to finish the assembly test this weekend.
