afvmodeller Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Hello everyone, Some shots of my build which I have been sitting on until the release of the Concept Note. The model represents the test aircraft used in the ejector seat tests - hence the cut down canopy and stripped out radio gear. regards David AIR Modeller Magazine DamonW, dutik, red baron and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afvmodeller Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 Thanks for the kind words everyone - much appreciated! This was a test shot built without decals or instructions and with the modified canopies. These sadly still lack the rounded corners on the opening section despite my attempts to get it changed. My only mods were a new pilot's seat cushion, recessed rivet detail on the seat back, headrest separated from the seat, HGW seatbelts and a reworked cockpit rear wall for the stripped out radio/radar gear, new brake cables on the main gear struts and rotated the nose wheel. The canopy was also cut down of course! Kev, sure that would be fantastic - let me know if you need anything from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
