As summer comes to an end glueing activities are increasing (slowly)....but some fire on the dragenonfly project.

It is. Cabine & fuselage is/was quite ok, but the rotorhead ....oh dear - no idea what they thought how these things shall come together. Also a miracle: the installation of the pilots overhead windows.
Unfortunatly I love those excotic kits and have to deal with it. 🙂

Oh my. I feel for you. I would need a break and take a deep breath. Otherwise I would be too impatient and would mess it up.

Thanks Michael - Recovery was started yesterday evening. An yes, you were right: a break was needed, a couple of deep breath too - but I needed to restore timley, otherwise the potential that I put it back to stash due to frustration would be high.
It turn out ok finally - pic's following soon.

Hallo Oliver - ungeschickt gewesen. Musste die Bilder im Freien machen - wie schon öfter. Hatte aber das launische Wetter nicht berücksichtigt - ein Windstoß hat doch tatsächlich das Blatt samt Heli in die Höhe gerissen und somit vom Tisch geweht. OMG.
Aber - gestern recovered und heute fotografiert,...alles wieder gut 🙂

Fabulous, not too many civilian choppers appear here nowadays. I like the white shading in particular, definitely something to follow 👍
