    Spiros, @fiveten, I love the scheme with those markings. This is really turning out to be a nice little build. Brave dad to let the New Recruit test fit the canopy, but no better way to learn. A little more trimming should bring it into alignment.
    I am impressed at how well you were able to do your cockpit post installation, it turned out really good.

    Thanks my friend @luftwaffe-birdman!
    The dreaded time of fitting the ultra soft white metal gear with those flimsy struts that bend even by breathing near them is arriving... 🙂

    Landing gear looks great, Spiros @fiveten
    Next to the Tornado she looks bigger then I thought.

    Doors, all actuators and wheels added, now patiently waiting for the styrene/metal joints to cure...

    Looking great, Spiros @fiveten.
    Stretched sprue I guess, how do you get it bent that nicely.
