Evening guys,just some minor progress to report.It was to windy and cold to paint the interior today so i did a few more sub assembly's. Seat is done,compressor is done and so is the fan.The rear bulk head and floor were glued in place.The rest of the walls are dry fit to make sure the line up ok.     Hope your liking this so far. |

Yes, Trumpeter is kicking out some really interesting kits and with simple, easy to understand instructions and at a decent price too. I'm impressed and that takes a lot too!  Nice work so far Leon and thanks again for the measurements! Looking forward to more progress pictures. Jeff |
