I am not doing a building thread on this kit since it is such a simple build but thought you might enjoy a couple of pictures of the framing..  more details are in my Vendors Corner Space (Griffins Model Service)

Thanks

Mike

A suggestion for you-I would glue the rudder fin to the stabilizer.  Just make it a little deeper so it extends through the top sheeting.  It's an easy modification and the rudder won't break off. Learned the hard way.  Yours is looking very nice.

Thank you Russell and thank you for the suggestion on the rudder.
