Try again

OK, I found a roundabout way to load the photos.  

Here is the engine cowling sheet metal.   Although for the most part the engines are exposed there is an engine mount with provisions to hold the oil reservoir and radiator.  This is the radiator fairing.




Here it is with the radiator mounted.



These parts and all of the control surfaces have been primed.

Chris, Frank, and I worked this weekend on assembling the fuel tanks.  This is a riveted structure and has 8802 sulfide sealant applied at all exterior mating surfaces.




I still have some work to do on the first tank.

That's all for now.

I'm Back

Sorry for the lack of postings these last few months.  Some of it was laziness, some was due to a diversion from the Aircam.

Anyway, a lot of progress has been made.  Almost all of the parts have now been primed.

Well you'll just have to trust me on this.  I seem to be having trouble uploading pictures.  I'll work on it and get back with you.
