HI ALL update time im now starting to build this whopping hangerbay an boy is it givin me some headaches planning it an to make it all come to bits two service the two hanger doors as they will be workin but I think ive got a handle on how to build it now after a bit of thought anyway 1st pick is most of the hanger bay bits all cut out an ready to glue togeather but got to go slow so I don't make any mistakes

[boatman]

next pic gluein the hanger sidewall to the hanger doors rear wall

[boatman]

then next a shot from inside the assembled unit so far

[boatman]

Now the other starboard side is fitted but got to be careful here as the withd must not be more than the hull withd

[boatman]

Chris,
Lovely work really looking good. The choppers add a whole new dimension.

[boatman]

an now another shot from couple of shots from inside

[boatman]

floor level

[boatman]

An now that ive got that far ive got to fit Sellotape to the hanger floor so as I start to glue in the front parts of the hanger they wont stick to the shiny tape then next step is to fit maskin tape to the sidewalls to hold the hanger in place then I don't KNOW as I havnt thought out any more yet but it will involve fitting the hanger doors but that will be in the next update last pic today
