What was wrong with color of cockpit? I think first color was very good.

Thanks Lis, the RAAF and CAC had their own version of interior green, which I forgot about at first, -----------
now with a coat of matt cote to take off the gloss and ready to go in the fuselage.

Were the undercarriage bay kit-parts cast too short in comparison to the real deal, or were they just cast short?
