Great job - how difficult/challenging was the build. I have 2 with all the Goffy resin/PE as well.

Hi crob`, it`s the second time I`ve built it so it wasn`t too hard this time around. Just make sure you glue the internal bulkheads to the fuselage securely, because those wings are heavy and you`ll end up with a bit of anhedral in no time at all. The rest of it: measure twice cut once applies. I glued some small squares of plastic sheet at the wing roots to make sure everything stayed level and inline when I attached the wings. Oh and I epoxy`d a bit of chopped up clothes peg between the exhausts to make sure they stayed put. 

Nothing horrendous. Hope this helps

Cheers Russ
