I am still working on the 14A, though at a bit slower pace. Family commitments and business travel have slowed down progress however I am starting to get my head back into the game.
Leading edges are 80% complete at this point and I am beginning to debur the tank ribs.
One interesting problem I am encountering with the leading edges is the lower rivets where the leading edge begins to curve (the forward portion of the leading edge). There are alignment issues between the splice strip and the dimples on the skin. I am going to remove the improper rivets (Tails squashed in an inappropriate way) and check the alignment. Will post the solution when I get back to it.
Other than that things are working well. I have been looking at lighting options but am thinking I will wait and purchase those at a later time perhaps next oshkosh.
By that time I may have even started the tail and will be able to purchase all the lighting at the same time.
With regards to tanks I am considering using a method I have seen posted recently on Vans Airforce. This uses around six smaller proseal bottles (3 oz each) rather than purchasing a Semco gun and packing the cartridges yourself. The specific thread is here:

Stay tuned!
