    Looks amazing Chris, well done getting that tiny light in there.
    Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

        HI GUYS well im shattered again an now havin a rest but ive acheived what i wanted to do regards fittin that blue nav light in the wing an got a little shakes but jen bought me up some biccies an a nice cuppa an it calmed me down so the nav light is now fitted in the wing thank goodness its not brilliant an i think its a bit of a pigs ears build as im out of pracktice build plane kits but once the little bit of filler is sanded down an the clearlence is painted tamyia clear blue should look acceptable anyway first pic is where its just gleuded in place Click image for larger version

                Yep, I know what you're talking about, Chris, and I hope Jen manages to help you get it sorted.
