Lots of fiddly, little jobs on the SM-77 today, while the umpteenth layer of Mid Stone paint is drying.
The Delta kit comes with two small beaching trollies, as the aeroplane has two hulls of course, but they're NOTHING like the last beaching trolley I built, the monster, all hydraulic one for the Monetery! But, having built them and tested them under the SM-77, I found it was a full-time tail sitter of course, as the engines aren't real ones to give it the correct CG. So I figured it'd need some jockey wheels under the aft end of each hull, and the Lancaster tail wheels were going spare of course, so they've been pressed into service.

The job I've been putting off for ages was to build the port engine pylon, but now I've bitten the bullet on that and the glue is drying prior to assembling it under the port engine pair.
I've also done the two sideways sliding bomb racks, complete with their weapons loads, bombs on the starboard side and depth charges on the port. The depth charges were made by just cutting off the rounded noses of some bombs and filing them flat (-ish...)
