    Bit of extra work with this one, hardest parts was adapting the Falcon canopy intended for the Airfix kit.

    Great build! Hard to find but definitely the best Avenger kit out there. I especially like the opened rear canopy. Nobody EVER does that!

    Thanks David,

    Glad you liked it. Opening up the rear of the canopy seemed to make sense as the FAA versions has the Observer's seat there and it added some interest. However, it did add a lot of work trying to make the Falcon vac-formed canopy designed for the Airfix kit fit!

    Cheers,
    Mark
