Just like full size airplanes are done, no pop riveting is done, when I post pictures upright they appear upside down here, why?

I will certainly post as I go, in the mean time let me show a previous project.

7 kg at 85 inches span

No gluing at all in the whole airplane, every skin will be riveted to the structure

No feedback?

This is a previous aluminum airplane I built and flew really well years ago, it has working wing leading edge slats .

Hello again! I just received more building material as finalise the challenging fuselage design, sorry, no CAD nor computerised stuff, just old fashioned pencils, rulers and such. as I said before, due extensive traveling and work constrain the project was on hold for a long time. I intended to build it 1/4 scale which it would have been 150 inches wingspan but at this size the Pioneer would be hard to transport and handle so I decided on 22% rather that 25%. I find the cowling extremely small to cover the engine but that is fine if the engine head is exposed some, we will see.

It’isn’t my build, it’s a friends of mine but thanks!
