Construction

The fuselage kit from Marske came in halves in which you place the tubular frame to connect the wings and the control system.  

This is a very strong and important part of the fuselage.  You can see the lever for the spoilers and the T Bar for the spoilers for each side in the center.

After the frame is in place, the wheel and skid are placed on the bottom of the shell. Make sure it is straight. John took great pains to do this and it paid off in the end.   The addition of the wheel faring was John idea. It looks great and helps with aerodynamics
