Great Meteor. What is remaining to do?

I have to redo a couple of decals . There is a small bull and an Air Commodore pennant on each side of the nose.

I've painted the canopy and the black anti glare panel.

Not long now.

How did you mate the engines to the wing?

Lou

[Boomerang]

From memory and looking at the pictures I marked out the centre lines of the wing on the inner and outer sides . Marked the wing section.

"Roughly" cut out and fitted and fine tuned ( filing) to the wing. Bit of wiggle room to check alignment and stuck . Again from memory very little filler needed. Your method of cutting out the tops would be a bit quicker.

Hope this helps

Cheers

Thank you Gordon. My wood has been selected and rough cut. I don't know hoe quickly I will get to it.
