Hello,
Speaking of side tunnel angle, it does become distinct at the front of Section #4. I mentioned, yesterday, that Section #3 becomes a tube and I caused myself a problem by not paying more attention to the position of the #4 frame... The frame was set a bit too far forward, so when #3 had to curve in front of the frame (to cross the tunnels), it held the skin from seating against #4 at that corner. I first started scuffing away some of the frame, then decided it was easier to notch the skin since that area would be hidden anyway (see photos).
The cockpit interior is not added until later in the sequence, but I went ahead and cut the opening and bent down the sides before gluing this section to the rest of the fuselage. It was easier to handle and reach inside, and the fit against the rest of the fuselage is easy and does not stress the paper.
Take care,
Kurt
