Thanks guys ny company was part of a buy out so things have been really busy for me I hope to finish this by the end of the year

So I started putting the cockpit together and went to install the canopy but the front part has a wicked s crack in it from the factory.errrrr.so I emailed testors and I'm waiting for a response.I'm not doing anything super in this area because its going to be closed for that sinister look.but there's some major fit issues to be delt with and I will show you them and how I fix them over next few days

update spoke with someone at testors and they are sending a replacement

That is an unbelievable level of workmanship!
Can't wait to see the final build.

Need some help actually. Does anyone have a good photo of the refueling inlet? I've searched to no avail I need detail I know its wrong. Also I am doing the SR-71A-1 nose so from the looks of it all I have to do is remove the chines and fill in the camera window thoughts

Does this help?
