Nice!  I always liked this aircraft - unusual in it's own way but never built one yet.  I shall let you insprire me.

Spent a couple of hours on the cockpit today. Firewall and instrument panel plus the seat and side consoles sorted enough for my purposes on this one. Test fitting these sub assembles together has highlighted a minor fit problem which I'll address tomorrow.

Hi Francis,

Looks a pretty comprehensive cockpit so far.

Cheers,
Bigkev

A bit more work from the overnight elves. No doubt about it Tamiya kits build very quickly.

Had to zoom in on the photo to see it - MUST get eyes tested.
