The Comet build goes on and on

 

I was really dreading hand sanding the cowl to shape, then I decided to try it on the belt sander being very careful.

It went better than I expected and I got it pretty close without making any major mistakes.

In this picture I have the lower leading edge sheeting being glued to the ribs.  I did take one step backwards when I let it fall off the building board and break off the trailing edge piece.  That is when I quit for the night.
