Hi Steven:
Looking good so far, glad that the overlayment on the tail worked out for you. I drilled out all the holes with a pin vice and then made turnbuckles, glued 'em in and rigged with EZ line. Rigging the space under the top wing center section was a bit of a challenge, but got it done. Keep up the good work. I too am thinking of doing the Junkers next, after the SE5 I am in the process of finishing up.
Take care
Mark

It really is looking good.I don't think it is going to take you much longer to finish this one up.
I too have started the SE 5a and have the Jumkers and Bristol and another LVG waiting. Now with the two Albatri on there way, I have the next year and a half pre-planned as far as builds go. That doesn't even include the Pup or the upcoming Pfalz, D.VII, or Gotha.
