And they’re in
Tried out the new Cyano (Sekundlim) today
I got hold of two different bottles, one labelled as thin, the other as thick. The last one I did consider a bit thin, and so that was opened for the project.
-
1. Very nice and thin intake - and it will have one more on top of it, creating a very small intake inside an intake!
2. A "flap" will be installed here

1. The styrene needs a drop of LqS
The parts fit a bit tight when I testfitted, but I went ahead and glued them up anyway. That was a mistake! They were not willing to fit anymore, and after almost glueing myself to the plane, I let the glue dry and cut away a fraction more. That did the trick, and even though I had to pry some of the parts free they cleaned up acceptably.
While I were at it I glued the modified instrumentpanel in. It is very different from a 109G – more like a 109K, and then again not quite. The instructions wants you to reuse the kits panel, but as I plan on a open hood, that simply will not do.

1. great decal for an after-war voltmeter
2. I'll re-think the upper panel but will have to decide soon what to do here
I fashioned mine out of a Photoetched panel for a (fujimi?) 109K and some spareparts, adding individual instrument decals back when I originally did the panel.
The Ha-1109 was unarmed, and they did not have a sight, so the hole was covered with a blob of LqS.
I still need one instrument, but that will be found soon – it has been left out because of the need to make a bulged glass. Fortunately it is not a Buchon, as they had completely different panels – with modern things like ADF and so forth.
And with that done it will be time for some glass and masks soon
