This is going to turn out really good given the progress that I've seen so far. If it were me I'd have a special case built for it so it'd never get a speck of dust on it being that you're putting all the effort , time and money that you are into this gem. Just my two cents good friend Kari.

Thank you Joe for your kind words, very much appreciated!

Unfortunately, no belts to be seen today either.
Perhaps tomorrow on Wednesday.

Not so much extra time with the build today, but were able to assemble the left wing.
And as with the right wing, extensive filling and sanding the front part of the wing, to get rid of the seam.
Im my previous builds, I have not really been successful getting rid of the seam, so this time I really rather spent 10 minutes more sanding and filling (Mr Surfacer 1000) than not doing it.

Did also, for the first time during this build, dryfit all the major parts.
And oh boy, yes it is big! :-)




(sorry for the messy desk)

Before disassembling it again, I will still leave it on my desk over the night.



Let's see what next

Wow looking good Kari! That is one massive build.

Thank you Clint and Bruce!

It is massive but also quite heavy. I start to wonder if the legs are sturdy enough

In my opinion, the four legged trusses which support each landing gear will make a sturdy and stable design. I need to review where the internal weight if any is located, though. As far as an out of box choice goes, this is an elegant one. The design of the subject itself is impervious to Dragon’s approach, and I just read multiple reviews that claim the only issues are garbled instructions—well, extremely bad instructions.

Yup she is a big beauty! Can’t wait to see the paint scheme go down!

You are right Bruce, made some dry fitting (again) and indeed, those legs are pretty robust and stable.




(don't pay too much attention the the loose wheel, it's not "pushed" into place yet

Thanks Kevin! I have decided to paint the 110 as displayed on the cover :
