Hi Roberto,
Very beautiful work on the plywood

[RobertoP]

Hi Vincent,

thanks, but unfortunately my work is not so good as your work on your Musger MG9, you are so precise in the junction of various plywood panels and I really I do not understand how you can do this perfect junction.
Here enclosed other two photos of my Pellicano

No problem, that's realistic like this, full size had same look

very Nice work Roberto, you can obtain better junctions of the panels with cutting templates prior to the cutting of the panels themselves to fit them perfectly but not too much ( it's a long work but no waste of plywood and more precise work) .
Avoid to sand too much the junction of the panels. It is worth bevelling carefully the panels and then you can determine the gap between them and there's almost no need to sand .

Dear Friend,

I am not sure, but is it possible, that you build your wong "upside down"?

Please check carefully.

L'aileron de gauche semble être sur l'aile droite et vice versa!

Hi, All
the wings are correctly built I don’t know why but it is an optical effect. If you check with the other photos in the post you can verify that the wings are not upside down.
