Intermission – Before disaster strikes…

I cleaned up the workbench before moving on to the next step.

The wings were glued last Thursday and Friday.

The fitting is… well 1970 fitting.

I will try to remedy without having to use a filler.

Monogram chose to have the pitot tube molded with the lower left wing, which isn’t a great idea. This is why I am protecting it with masking tape to avoid snapping it off.

The Fw190 is still waiting to be painted as well as the Ju87G.

I have since glued the two propellers, the front and the main wheels and the stabilizer halves. I will work later on the landing struts.
