Looking very nice Alan...
... makes me wanna get my 1/48 one out

[AlanG]

I most certainly aren't going to stop you Andy

First coat of yellow painted onto the cables up to the electrical bracket. Will need another coat later. The rest of the cables will be painted once i add some cable ties in place. Pneumatic pipes are painted in dull aluminium and the connectors in magnesium. Just to give some sort of contrast to them.

[AlanG]

Doesn't look much but i've added a couple of wires i missed and also forgot to split them into their respective groups. Also added the first batch of cable ties. These are made out of 0.2mm lead wire rolled flat. Will have to repaint everything later but it's getting there now. Not much more to do before i can assemble the cockpit...... after the HGW seat belts are made, which are a model in themselves to make.

Cheers Andrew & Steve. I'm hoping to get a bit more of done with this in the next week. I've graciously been allowed to take 5 days off from Monday and hopefully SWMBO will allow me some bench time too.

Got some wild coffee making planned too lol

Good to hear about the leave Allen. I know you have been working hard. Hope the weather holds up for you.....I hear it was a bit breezy your way a earlier this week. Down here it's surprisingly mild - more like mid-March temperatures.
