I made two cuts in adequate angle. Then I flipped this section 180 degrees "et voila". As an extra side efect the brakes now are above the root of intended wing, so I can keep them.

Great modifications, are you going to make a canopy or do you have one the right size?

I made two cuts perpendicularly to the fuselage axis, but these cuts were not (just a few degrees angled) parallel. Then I turned 180 degrees the section between these cuts, so up is in down and left is in right, but front is still in front. I will try to post a drawing.

Open your door and go out on your doorstep.

Listen carefully.

That distant but clearly wild sound you hear is a Canadian cheering for you with unbridled enthusiasm!

Terrific!!!  Bold, daring, and well-executed, too.

Love the fuselage trick: like the way tin-bashers twist furnace vent pipes.  Clever!
Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.
