CorFlute Build Photos






Home Made retract module

Retract module mounted onto C/F wing struts


Basic assembly

Gondola fitted off with first draft canopy


Engine cowls fitted



Paint time - I was going for something similar to this but the available selection was limited (no olive drab).

Invasion stripes double as attitude indicators (which side is up)

Re-vamped canopy - closer to scale.

At the field - some glory shots


Home Made Retracts - so far have proved reliable.
