TimHepplestone Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 That's just Lovely work Peter. I have the same kit in my stash . Was wondering if you'd had any fit problems around the engine cowlings? Previous comments I've seen on the forums here is that the engine cowlings fit poorly when building it closed up like you have.

This is correct , the fit of the engine cowling is not good because it is too narrow. I have solved this problem with the integration of a "spacer" made out of a spare sprue piece and some plastic card tabs to expand the cowling.
