Now that the skeeter is done I can get to work on the Beercat er Bearcat. I have already got the tub done and now I just spent a couple of hours on the engine and supercharger assembly. I am still not done with that engine. Its a really intense part of the kit, I dont know how many part there are to it but I would guess well over 80.

I really enjoy this kit but I think I could have done a better job of the engine, oh well I still have the Corsair and the Hellcat to fiddle with next.

I spent all day just assembling wings, just two of them, and now I have minor issues with gaps and steps but thats nothing grinding and filler wont take care of. I think I could have done better at this assembly had I actually known the minute details left out in the instructions.
Anyway, I didnt do too awful bad today and I got to a point where I wanted.

Repaired this tail wheel about a dozen times
