    Colin the antenna was a challenge to say the least. I left fitting until the model was finished, then attached the struts that hold the antenna and painted them black. Then it was onto the antenna I painted them RLM 76 white and red. Each antenna was attached at a 45 degree angle here are the instructions I had to follow it was not fun. I used Tamiya extra thin to join them as it sets fast but still was difficult. It did get to the point that was there a version that didn't have any antenna.

                Lovely build of my favourite plane

                I have this in the stash but do not have the confidence to build it.

                  Bob I would give it a go, the kit went together very well the main issue for me was working out how to paint the camo.
