The coming together of the fuselage

Little by little, work has been ongoing on the fuselage of this model. Measuring just over 64" when finished, and building it in a room 2m x 2.6m is keeping life interesting. The two side trusses have been built, key formers in place and tonight the main section of the fuselage was tied together. So far, so good. At this point, it has been decided that we are going to use the build instructions as a 'guide' but push ahead on the construction (otherwise having to wait for the retracts to arrive). Photos below showing everything aligned and glued with 30minute epoxy for strength.
