...off this goes....note the instructions for the 1954 older ITC model have the float position correct. Several other modelers looked into this and explicitly said the correct position is in the instructions for the ITC kit and, by golly, they match up to the pin holes in the wing...pretty easy decision....

rare plan, rarely see something like that. It already looks really interesting and I'm very excited to see what happens next. good luck!

You get a medal for the courage to build this kit. And a second medal for the result.🙂

I just love seeing these old kits getting built. Better than leaving them up in a closet festering away. Looking forward to seeing this completed.

...in a complete jig operator error moment...all the center supports for the wings got pulled from their glued spots on the tops of the engines...its a mess....and the wing will have to come off and some kind of "repair" done with thin styrene to cover it up...ouch....
