| OK, guys. Here's where we are.... at ! The wing has been constructed and the dihedral set. Waiting for everything to dry good, then it's a dry fit and make necessary adjustment before covering. If all fits well, I'll start covering the wing. Then cover the fuselage. You can see the finished main float and tail sections in the pic. Charles

| Here's the dry fit that I promised ..... wings and tail ass'y to the fuselage. I must say I am not thrilled with the way the trailing edge of the wing mates to the fuselage. I may have to crack a fuselage former and move it a smidge. Suppose to rain, today, and I have outside things to do before it does. Work more this evening. Quote:

| Beautiful Charles! I could only open the second picture for some reason, so couldn't quite see the joint you mentioned. Could it be reinforced with a thin strip, then the strip hidden by the wing fillet? Just a thought, rather than have to cut in to the centre section longerons.
