Hope it was not to serious with the good lady and that she is recovering well.

Looks a straight forward build Mick. I will drop in in a day or two to see the finished bird. lol

[Jim R]

All the best to Mrs Mick for a speedy recovery. Don't forget to hoover into the corners and don't let the washing build up :smiling3:
That rigging is a bit of a head scratcher. Hope you get the instrument panel sorted.

[Steve Brodie]

Hope SWMBO is better soon, re the rigging, could you not follow the instructions :angry::angry:, and just add it into the holes with some superglue later on ?

Mick,
Chair pulled up mate, and sending best wishes to the Mrs for a speedy recovery.

Best wishes to mrs C , hope she has a speedy recovery . The ejector pin marks on this are a bugger arent they , not just the fact theres loads of them but in difficult to fill places too . I agree with steve , ignore the daft instructions and just superglue into the holes after painting is done , cheers tony

Wishing SWMBO a speedy recovery.

Off to a good start but that rigging looks like it'll be a headache further down the line.

Best wishes to your good lady for a speedy recovery.

Thanks Andy

In between nursing duties I’ve managed a couple of quick trips to the desk. The instrument panel is not accurate but looks the part. I’ve also made some progress on the cockpit, unfortunately the light was going so the pic isn’t great.
