Steve. I am convinced there is a woman somewhere that does all the irritating voices for modern technology. Has anyone else noticed that it is always the same voice? She must be a multi-millionairess by now.I had cause to use a friend's sat nav once and got so irritated by the voice that in the end I had to warn him that the moment she said "unexpected item in bagging area" his machine was going over the side of Sarah-Jane.

Friend never commented so I guess he preferred it. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Callahan Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) I'm at the spot in my DH-91 where I am attaching the wings and am having loads of issues with connecting the wing center piece to the fuselage. It just refuses to fit. I finally got everything to stick, but there is lots of PSR in my future. Always scary on a silver airplane. Still, I'll use your build for inspiration and carry on!

I didn't have too much trouble getting the wings to stick so it sounds like you have a duff part there. As for the sanding and polishing, there's no way round that. It just needs a lot of time and patience. Mind you don't damage those inboard intakes as a certain Muppet of this parish managed to do. Cleaning up the extra scratch marks from the repair without damaging the replacement intakes really has set my build back to the point she might not make Telford this year.
