R/H wing assy/securing model to hangar floor

I temporarily fit the R/H wing assy to the fuse and center section.The aircraft now looks like it tripled in size.Wow,it sure is a good looking airplane with that huge upper wing span.For such a large airplane it looks very graceful sitting there on the workbench.
