More P-39 progress

We went to church this morning, it was a very nice service and I had a good time afterwards visiting with a couple of church members.
Here is the left wing after being taken off the building board today and the edges trimmed.  I just have to add some supports in the wheel well area and it will be time to join the wing halves.
I got the modifications to the nose gear strut done, I had to shorten it by 2 1/2 inches, glue in the adapter and tap holes for the set screws.  Then I discovered I didn't have any wheels the right size but they are on order now.  I also got the rest of the stringers installed on the front half of the fuselage so it is ready to sheet.
