Made little progress with the fuse...the cheap 3 Rs ice cream sticks were not straight enough for the fuse :headscratch:..so i had to eat 2 choco feasts...have to say..they definitely have kwality :giggle:..the sticks were straight and a little thick...perfect for the fuse..joined two of them together.

glued two sticks..for mounting purpose on to the wing's underside...these sticks would then be glued to the fuse.refer the pics.

Glued the wing and the horizontal and vertical stabs to the fuse...

Certain things are done out of deep passion. You don't need others to acknowledge or recognise your efforts, you do it because you want to discover who you are and what you are capable of doing. You do them so that your strengths and weaknesses come forward and look you square in the eye. You HAVE to acknowledge and accept them. It is a process of self realisation leading to self actualisation.

Our Hovercrafts, despite the heavy financial losses incurred, brought Great Guns and me a lot of enjoyment and self satisfaction. We are happy with that. We will give these contests a pass.

Thanks anyway, Ankur!
