I`ve completed the instrument panel with added petrol lines. Also, the turnbuckles were added to the rudder bar and the control stick.

The cockpit is almost ready. I`ve added some smaller scratch-built details like the magneto switch or the petrol installation plumbing.

The cockpit is almost completed. I`ve decided to replace the original seatbelts with the HGW aftermarket ones. They are extremely good and much more to scale.

Thanks a lot!!!
Apart from the two cross-section wires, the cockpit is ready to be installed into the fuselage. I`ve added a map and the gloves to the gunner`s seat.

Many thanks!!!
The first pieces of Aviattic`s CDL decals have been applied. I must admit they are beyond my expectations - simply gorgeous. The fuselage is glued together.
