Hey, careful there. I'm Germish.

I was being careful. Oh, and it was 1944 before the Finns joined against the Germs. They were whacked by the Soviets in 1939. Fought against them on the German side until joining the Allies in 1944.

"They were whacked by the Soviets in 1939." Are you sure about that? I think the Soviets got wacked by the Finns, losing 175 soldiers per Finn lost. Finns just knew they would not win a prolonged war against the Soviets like they did earlier in the Century, so a peace was mercifully negotiated before the Soviets got further shot up and the Finns entered WWII as an allied of Germany to help protect against further Soviet Martyrs.

They got whacked initially by the Soviets, whereupon they did some serious whacking back. First punch is what I was referring to.

“They got whacked initially by the Soviets, whereupon they did some serious whacking back. First punch is what I was referring to.“. The way I see it, little Finnland beat the Soviet Union twice in the 1900’s then adaptation used Germany for protection and avoided much of the carriage of war war two. Don’t hear much about Finnland these days in the world news unless one looks at school test scores, they lead the world. For all I know they are quietly running the entire planet

The way I see it, Finland beat the Soviet Union in two wars in the first half of the 1900's and now have the highest math test scores. Perhaps Trump should request more immigrants from Finland instead of Norway

Skipping all the political jokes, back to business.
We usually expect to take about 120 hours to do a fuselage, including canopy area. I'm curious to hear how long it has taken you.
Nice when you start getting close to "that's good enough, I'm done".
Thanks for sharing
