...the term used to describe a model airplane stage just prior to covering. The 'bones' being the loosely assembled structure with all the wood, ribs, rudder, elevator and so on all visible.
This is the Tower Hobbies 'Fun P-51'. It is a simple kit really, and my second one. First one flew in 2000. It eventually suffered a very hard landing the broke the fuselage. I saved all the hardware, radio equipment and the main wing. This new one is using the salvaged wing with ailerons.

A couple of close-up shots of the custom wing root fairings and the antenna wheel assembly in the wing. The radio antenna will come out of the 'canopy' then back to the top of the verticle stabilizer.
Should be getting around to covering it sometime in the next week to 10 days.
