At fisrt glance, I thought not much....but almost everything is re-done... and NEWly constructed!....

Everything in the 2nd generation has the New construction methods writen all over it....
Lightening holes Galloooore... and almost all plywood and spruce stringers....
Almost not balsa...(NOw that is all the rage nowdays!)

THe hinges have been glued and set for you...(bonus)
