De Havilland DH.88 Comet G-ACSS - completed
1September 27, 2020Each nacelle has cooling gills on both sides. With a small round milling head I thinned carefully the material from inner side.

3October 1, 2020
4October 1, 2020Etched rear part for the inner side of the flap area reinforced with plastic stripes.
5October 1, 2020
6October 1, 2020Rear parts of the nacelles: left and right reversed🙁🙁🙁 arghhhh!
7October 1, 2020Sometimes the most radical way is the best way: nacelles ripped off.

25October 10, 2020A dish of aluminum sheet as reflector
26October 10, 2020Shoulder harnes added.
27October 10, 2020I don’t like photo etched flaps because they are to fragile and it’s difficult to fit them on the rest. Because of that I invested one half of hour and made them of plastic.
