quang Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Great start, mr. B although you ought to be careful. Your Mustang has every chance to be shot at by friendly fire if it bears the underwing IFF lights the way you did it The correct sequence from leading edge to trailing edge ( front to rear) is: red - green - amber.

Mr b Posted July 19, 2018 Author Share Posted July 19, 2018 Hi folks started gluing n fine tuning stuff..... just need a good flat coat......waiting for the belts....to finalize the airframe.....so far my opinion is the details and level of detail is great for the price and size. Fitting is also great thus far. rgds brian Bruce_Crosby, johncrow, LSP_Kevin and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
