I'm currently detailing a design with a moulded fuselage and the engine centreline, wing and stabliser all on the one line.

Al Rabe, Chris Cox and Paul Walker all split their moulds vertically but for a design with the wing at mid-fuselage, it seems to me that splitting on the horizontal centre line then cutting a bit out of upper and lower moulds to mount the wing would be easier.

Does anybody experienced with moulded fuselages think there is a problem with this approach?

Joe Daly did a write up in Model Aviation not to long back with a similar technique, good read.
