Hi Oleg. How is your progress? Somehow I missed to drill the holes for the pylons, which the instructions only tells in step 12, but you have to do it in step 6 latest... easily fixed.
An I think that the part numbers for the small pylons on the CFTs are badly mixed up. Did you encounter the dame issues?

Ingmar, do you mind that I sneak in to spy on how you build this kit? I have it somewhere in my stash and want to learn from you how to build it.

I added some information on the steps where I encountered problems. Sadly I did not write down the part numbers I ended up using. Especially not for the pylons in step 12. As I already had started applying glue there was no possibility for dry fitting and I also was to angry. Just make sure, that you check the fit of all pylons A14 to A17 before you apply glue. In my opinion the instructions are wrong in this step, but I can not point out the correct order.
