Cool.....
I added the aft planes and rudder last night, will need work, the rudder is wider than the stem........all I can say is !!!!(*), think of the drag it would cause.............
I'm going to leave her for a couple of days, I'm feeling quite peeved with this kit at the moment......Phil

That's a weird one Phil,or you may say, "wow, that's a rudder!!" It's definately a bit of a bugger that, you're going good guns, working through it, then something like that just comes around and you say a few of those 'funny explicet' words!!!, but you'll get back to it, you've put so much good work into it, but I suppose a wee rest from it will clear the brain, or you just go and see "Thor' and borrow his hammer!!!!!!!!!!!.........Dave

This type of 'stove/heater' was used in British Railways guards vans in my working days over there herr Phil, and god, they were bloody great in that 'wee' confined space that was my 'hut' on wheels for the day!!......."phew" I too can feel the heat from it!!!..........Dave
P/S, I've got a funny feeling that Steve wont part with it!!
