nice Hellcat ADW...this should put an end to the recent 'unpleasantness' I think

It looks fully functional WRT control surfaces, landing gear, etc..

Stars always point north on the fuselage and forward on the wings...

on a related note:

Red, Left, Port...the three shortest words vs. Green, Right, Starboard the three longer words (as a way to remember which nav lights go where)

Thank you both for your kind words.

looks like we may have a little problem...

My aunt accidently put another hole in it(last time it was a purse droped on my finished wing)

its happened so many times now, its forgive, repair, and forget

no one has a delicate touch in my family, sooo there are dangers everywhere.

anyways, looks like a couple of snapped stringers. at least it is in between formers, and didnt affect harder to repair items such as my paper access ports or plastic bits.

O well. Nothing for me to do but repair it. I cant have my plane look like that can I?

Geez Alex, what did you do to your aunt to make her so mad at you?

Only thing I can suggest is if you get a new puppy, wait until it's full grown before you show your Aunt.

You can choose your friends, but not your relatives...

I'm with Bill, get it repaired then hung up out of the way!
