That should look real good Bill
Nice work Bill.
Very good Bill.
In the realm of dog fighting, if it's a fair fight... you did something wrong.
Good work Bill - looks great. I must have a go at this on my next project.
Cheers
Peter
Great work on the hinges Bill will add good reality to the finished machine.

Well another spanner in the works, the gods don't want me to finish this bird. Seems all the work I put into the ailerons has been in vain, they are toooo thin! I am going to make a casting of a pair of Hurricane ailerons, but because the hinge points don't match up I will fill them with clay before casting. Wish me luck.
Planes are so simple....... damned helicopter builds!
Damn! The only othere thing you could try is pinching the wing halves more at the aileron locations but this could make a visible warp. Good luck!
Good luck with your next try Bill

You could try separating the kit ailerons at the hinge line, and building the aerofoil section with plastic rod. Then sand to the required profile. That's the way I normally do it, and find it much easier, quicker and less expensive than casting or buying resin parts.
As it's got the flap kit installed, I can't pinch the wing together. I have made the mold last night from the Hurry kit pieces. I will try casting before I am off to work today. I can button this thing up and start painting when I get this resolved. I can use the Hurry pieces, but then I won't have the complete Hurricane set if I decide to one of them later on. But it may come to that.

Keep chipping away at her Bill, you'll get it done.
Agree with that Aaron!
You'll get there Bill.
