I worked on this today for about 20 minutes. Sanding the seat. I also checked the seams. So much seam work, but all appear to be steadfast! A minor miracle.

That is good! Probably the worst sound for me (besides a crunch from the floor) is to hear a seam pop while sanding.

Yes—terrible sound. There is so much Milliput coverage the surface is now slightly a matte finish. Grainy. That’s probably due to not sanding beyond 1500 grit. I did this because I was saving sandpaper for slot car projects, not cheapskate behavior but simply a constraint. There is still a gap where the wings mate with the fuselage in front. I am still debating to keep that and keep the original raised panel lines in that section. It’s 6 am and I’m writing about this. Wow. Thanks so much for writing, Lyle. Sincerely.
