Here is one older model by me

That times I didn't know what detail set means so the following are scratchbuild

1. Everything in the cocpit (wiring, piping pilot pillow, seat belts)
2. hole it the cone of the helix for the MG F 20mm
3. I cut the flaps and get them lower
4. I cut the canopy to open (it was one piece)
5. The whole engine was scratchbuild
6. The pitot
7.The wiring on the landing wheels
8. The case in the (I don't know how i can say it ) Back-Left in the fuselage
9. the antena
10. rescribing in some areas
The only aftermarket was the mg-15 in the engine

Enjoy









Cheers Nick

Yes the cutting of flaps can be hard to do at times Nick , you did go though !

If you could go back and do things different what would they be and why ?
