VQ Messerschmitt BF 109
Andy Pickford replied to Andy Pickford's topic in Build Blogs and Kit Reviews
Right then. I had a little covering to remove from the fin before i could fit it. It was easy enough to mark and cut with a soldering iron. The slots are already cut for the rudder just a case of gluing them in once the rear wing is glue in place. I also removed the covering from the rear wing for fittment into the slot you can see on the fin. I'll fit the control horns and mark out where the struts need to be screwed in before i fit it. The fin went in no problem with plenty of epoxy. One day i will use epoxy without covering myself in the stuff!!! -
VQ Messerschmitt BF 109

You will never guess what i found in my back room!!! Yes my ME109. My bum is just about in gear got a few bits done tonight. I have glued the fin in place and stripped all the covering from the fin and stabilizer for gluing. also masked off the canopy for painting, you will see why when i put the pics on. Hopefully i will get the pictures on in an hour or so thats if i dont get stuck in front of the TV watching 24 on sky. Andy -
Flew on sunday didnt think it was that bad, but when i lost the feeling in mr right thumb and couldnt see for the tears i Guessed it was a tad cold. I thought it best to do many aborted landings until i got it in ok i was a little worried as i was loosing control because my thumb was slipping off the stick. But it came in ok in the end. Then got in the car and home!!!!! Roll on the summer!!
