No worries Frank, look after yourself and keep out of the sun B)
finished the covering and sealed all the edges with some thinned dope.The only jobs left to do are grey prime the airframe, epoxy the hinges and connect up the servos and my job is done.

Looking really nice Pete. You have not got a lot of space to work in by the look of it and an even bigger well done on scratch building large scale stuff in a restricted air space.. ;)

Did you build in the back of a chair on the front end?

Looks great Pete :)

Who is painting it, or is the plan to fly it first?

my job is done on the provost and mighty fine she looks.I will upload pics later this week when I get time to put her together.
Frank and I have decided to leave the airframe in primer for now so he can work his magic on the cowl and canopy as the airframe will pick up some hanger rash while it gets moved around his workshop. I have arranged to meet up with Frank next Sunday at cashmoor to hand over the provost .
I hope Frank decides to make the canopy first so it will make the provost ready for flight and Jon T on test flight duties and the awesome sound of the saito radial.
Once the flight testing have been done I will have the provost back to apply the scale detailing and final paint finish.

Pete
