Default MORE and BETTER Assembled Airframe pictures...

Well, I must say it came out pretty good. I wish I could have kept it inside but theres just no room for it. I had to put it out in the shop, which worries me cuz I don't have heat out there and its getting cold, like freezing. It should be alright, right?

Anyway heres a quick picture, I'll get a better one taken outside tommorrow...

Really wasn't all that quick. I just too 2 weeks vacation during the last 3 months during which I did nothing but work on my bee. I'd say I was able to get 60 or so hours in on it during those vacation weeks and thats what made it seem so quick.

I did have to re-do the keel earlier because I didn't like how a couple of the clusterplate holes come out and I wanted to incorporate the new Starbee nose block design into the front of the keel. My next step is to get the gear on so it will stand up on its own, then the seat, after that the tail. Can't wait to see her done!!! WooHoo!!!
