I'm on the truck side of the models so I don't know diddly about planes but what I can say is I would be very surprised to hear that anyone here hasn't had problems with some of their projects. Don't give up, if you ask the question, someone here most likely can help, it's a very helpful group. These folks have gotten me through a couple of my trucks with everything from making it "fit right" to paint and glue on glass. Dont give up on it there's plenty of help here. Rich
