    Main landing gear and tail wheel attached. Flattened the tires. Those main tires are really huge in real with a diameter of 1.67 meters in diameter.

    Canopy, front turret and rear turret attached, not yet permanently butit does show that they fit quite nicely. Still need to make some improvements on the frame painting of the canopy.

    Looks great, John (@johnb). I can't imagine what it was like to fly with this bomb hanging off the bottom of your plane.

    @gblair, thank you, George. I agree, and flying that low to drop it must have been terrifying as well.
