Managed to get a start on this one! The centre wing section and one aileron were slightly warped but I think they are straight now. Made some bulkheads, one behind the cockpit, one forward of the side blisters, and one behind.

Found a mission prop blade at the bottom of the Box so reattached that, Mounted the bulkheads, and added stringers to the fuselage. Boxing in the nose wheelwell and then have to figure out where to mount some weight so its not a tailsitter.
