So that's the PSR on the mast done.  Next job is to design and build the new rear end and (sorry Kit) shorten the wings.

Tut, tut. (Sigh) :(
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

Never fear Kit, the offcuts will be used to extend the wings on the next one.

That's nicely 'different', and it looks like you've sorted the dreaded hinge problem.

Look at that, disappearing reply syndrome strikes again.  I'm beginning to suspect Chris is deleting posts at random... :mellow:

I did type something about the new tail doing away with clamshell doors due to it being a purely passenger aircraft.

I'm glad it's not just me who has that problem Fred, but it's a sorry state that it happens at all!

So is that an air-stair or just a door?

Absolutely no idea why this should happen  :unsure:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Only thing I can think of is you're hitting "Preview" instead of "Post".  I've done that far to many times to like...especially after a caffeine-induced historical diatribe :banghead:

I hit 'Preview' before I hit 'Post' EVERY time, if only to ensure I haven't made any crass errors in the post before it appears on the page.

But I've still had posts vanish after I've posted them now and then.

Stairs.  With folding handrails.  Not that anyone will ever actually see that.  But I have spoken... ;)

Oh that is exactly what happens.  I type something, preview it, and then instead of posting it go back to the list of unread posts.
But there is no way i'm going to admit to doing that if I can blame a mysterious conspiracy.  Or Chris.   ;D
