My son has decided to get into models so this would be an ideal starter for him.

Thanks for the reminder, yes I would like to be in the graw.

Nice to hear peple are happy with Hanger 9 models, I'm not!
I have a Corsair that has not flown yet. The undercarriage keeps collapsing before it gets out to the strip.
The first time we took it out the fin broke when the undersarriage gave way. On stripping the covering to effect the repair I found that the grain of the wood was horizontal instead of virtical. Of course this could have given way in flight, if I could get that far.
I am starting to think the only way forward is to throw the provided retracts away and buy a new set. This makes the model an expensive buy and if I'd known about these problems would have prefered another manufacturer who did not include a substandard set of retracts.
Sorry to put a spoke in the euphoria

Hi Kevin,
Re-gluing wing halves together.
Try putting masking tape on the surfaces to be glued and joined.
Smear Vaseline on the wing surfaces where the overspill will be.
Remove the masking tape and apply the glue.
Fit the two wing halves together and support as you wish.
When dry the excess glue should now come off without any trace on the finished surfaces.
Works for me Kevin.
Regards,
Arthur

Hi David,
