Cannons now fitted , i used brass tube for these as the kit ones were misaligned, plus it means i can have them hollow. The brass tube was flared out at the ends slightly by holding it in a vice and hammering a tapered pin into it . While I had the brass tube out I replaced the pitot as the plastic one was misaligned too.
The aerial has now been added and the wires fitted . One other thing ive had to do is add the position light at the very end of the tail . This was a piece of stretched clear sprue sanded to shape and drilled to simulate the bulb .
The throttle levers have been stuck in and painted , the exhaust stains have been done now and thats it - finito !!
Only 6 months late !
