  1. For 2023, I've decided to temporarily shelf all my helo builds so that I can concentrate on building this model for a friend's dad using the OOP Nichimo 1/20 Cessna 172 model. I reached out to Josh Flowers (Aviation101) on YT about building his father's airplane from years ago as a surprise gift. Josh is all for it and we are supposed to surprise his dad with the model the week of the 2023 Nats in San Marcos, Texas. His dad's 172 was N9812J. He called it "Juliet". It carried this exact paint scheme except the wheel pants were all white. The model requires alot of scratchbuilding especially on the inside to accurately show a 1980 model 172 instead of the early 70's 172. The first hurdle was the rear passenger seat. The Nichimo model's seat looks nothing like the later version on the seat, so many nights were spent scratchbuilding the new seat. It still needs painted and seat belts, but I wanted to show off the seat. Comments welcome! Tim
