    In the weekend I started work with Mosquito. I try to build modern Mosquito like my old Airfix mosquito that I build in elementary school. I remember nose art with mosquito so I bought set of DK-Decals with the same art. I hope it will be a fun build.

    When I cut of some small bits one of them was broken. Damn! I glued it by CA glue and I hope main gear will hold up well. This is transverse winding of the landing gear legs.
