    fit and shape of the canopy parts isn´t that good
    as you can see, there´s a step between rear canopy and fuselage
    also the front canopy didn´t fit well, luckily there´s a second canopy included for non telescope gunsight aircraft. this canopy fits better, made a coutout for the telescope and gonna use that one
