Camel update

Postby expat » Wed Jun 22, 2011 1:02 pm

It has been quite some time since the last update. Unfortunately life has gotten in the way. The upper wing is now complete except for the internal rigging. It has been dummied up to check for dihedral of the lower wing and the correct length of the struts. I am beginning to feel as if I am on the home leg, but still quite a bit to do.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Yes it is a kit - Model Airways. I would like to do the Jenny, but space for the finished item would pose a rather large problem.

PS, at the end of the page, it says "intermediate Level", so long as you have been making model kits since you are about six years old (I am 43) then yes it is intermediate
