    Instrument panel finished (I know I am jumping the gun) and the two sides finished off with a few instruments not acrurate but it looks better than nothing Click image for larger version

      I have one of these, it sits on my fish tank - needless information there. I built the black Shuttleworth collection version. The good news is, I don't recall any problems with this build. It's a really nice kit.

            Hi Peter
            That's looking very good. Those decals for the dials look very useful.

              But when I put the pilots seat in I found it sat to high up so at bit of butchering it sits right. Click image for larger version

                  Great progress Peter.
                  Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                    That's a lot of windows to mask!

                        Hi Peter
                        Well done getting the seat to fit, at least it's done now and looks good. Body halves look to be a decent fit. That's a lot of masking :rolling:

                          Am I right in thinking the kit has separate elevators, but they have locating pins that always fix them in the horizontal position?

                              Typical … It would be a fair amount of work to put them in a different position, by the look of it?
