    Double Dakota the end

    Finally got mine passed the finish line after my pal has had his for a few weeks now. I managed to have issues with both builds but they look like Dakota’s
    Took a couple of daylight shots with mine after remembering to remove the masks, oh and refitting the top aerial for the 8th time

            Didn't know that, so thanks. Hopefully it will make an appearance later this year.
            We are lucky here as very often in the summer we get a Spit , Hurricane and the Dakota do a fly over on the way home .Will look out for it now .

                      Very nice indeed. Considering what an important part Dakotas played during the war we don't seem to see many models built.

                          Ok Mick, so you've already passed on North Dakota to your friend so this must be South Dakota...For being troublesome kits, you really knocked them together and made a fantastic finish on them both. Top work my friend and please give yourself a big pat on the back too!!!

                          Prost
