More done on the 189

More work done on the 189 today. First I finished off the engines


Then I managed to lose one of the parts for the landing gear, so queue an hour of slicing plastic card strip to make a replacement.


Then made up the Landing gear


Finally fitted the port wing / boom together - some Mr Surfacer on some of the joints, but nothing major
