I have the top wing assembled and parts for the fuselage ready but don't have the room right now. I will have Tom send me update photos as he finishes it up which I can post on my website - Glenn

Well now that the cat's out ofthe bag, it is a really magnificent model! Tom has done a great job so far. I liked the use of carbon fiber in horizontal and verticle stabs for strength but to also keep the weight down. I love the laminated leading edges. A technique not often used any more.
