Thanks.

Well, it could be almost finished (with just the coolings to remove/fill), depending if I will make it canard or not...

Thanks!
In fact, it is not finished: I started cutting off the coolings on the booms (no need for jets), but the cutter cut my finger and the blood flew (a little)... I will continue later, after slow repair of my finger...

Now that you've made a blood sacrifice to the gods of modeling, all will be well, mon ami!

Thank you for keeping us updated on this delightful project!

Sanding the booms is now done.
Remains:
- truncating the low part of the fins (not to be burnt by the jet exhausts)
- cutting the pod and wings to move it to the rear into a canard...

That's looking really good, mon ami!

I wish I could achieve such outstanding PSR work like that!

This almost looks like some of the various Personal Air Vehicle (PAV) ideas out there.

I did not know that, but with my (future) rotors on the wing, it looks like https://vimeo.com/18289090

to correct what I forgot to do in time, I removed with Photopaint the low part of the fins on the picture above:

That's some of the most intense PSR I've seen in a while, mon ami and you are most bravely rising to the challenge!
