Thanks for sliding in, Boys. Looks pretty straight forward. Did a little test fitting last night and I think it's not to bad.  Ian, the Fuselage measures 5 inches long. That would be about 18 CM, yeah?

Thanks, Boys. Start up in the morning. Paul, you're right about the measurement. I read the ruler from the wrong end.

So we got a start. Stuffed some weight in the Nose.  Fuselage took a little sanding and trimming to fit but not bad. Same with the wings. A little trim here a little filing there and ta-da.  Basic F-4. There are some gaps to be dealt with but nothing too bad. Let the glue set up and I'll start on those. TTFN and AAACW

Looks like an F-4 which is always a great start  Seriously though, neat build Jeffers
