Then Caracal release this nice sheet
For this aircraft
So it was decided, this was the state of the build when rescued from the cupboard
Anyway I got some done on it today, but first a bit of a funny day for me today at work, the office power went out at about 11AM, about that time a bush fire sprang up about 1km from us (near the airport). We had very high winds and a dust storm at the time. After about 30 minutes the fire was running near us and we were told to head home, I could not believe all the rubberneckers who had come out of the woodwork to watch it as I was trying to get out of there. It ran towards the south east and fortunately the winds have dropped and it did not hit the suburbs. A recycling yard did go up though.
Anyway, that gave me a chance to get into this build.
I half though about trying to add some bubble observation windows but nipped that in the bud if I wanted to get it finished.
The fuselage was glued together and nose weight added, then I turned my attention to the engines.
The right one has had the intakes opened up, I also added an exhaust pipe to the back end. The engines were press fitted to the wing to see how they would look
and a test fit of the wing and tail plane to the fuselage, no glue yet.
I will get into the other engine next and then start to think about scratch building the additional lumps and bumps
