Guest Vincent Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Hi I have been working on this kit for a little while now. Some pics of where i am at the moment. Everything not stock is scratchbuilt. Working only a little bit every day so it will take a while to complete. Finished control column, redone engine primer and Dunlop brake relay valves Elevators control crankbell Seat support frame with holes and rivets Rudder bars redone with adjusting star wheels and thread. Heel board work started Control column rework Back and bottom armor for the seat Bottom armor in place and seat back cushion Vincent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Vincent Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) Works continues on the heel board with some detailing and the addition of the very visible fuel electrical pump interference filter and a better view of the differential braking relay. Instruments feeding lines added as well with their brackets Tank pressurization knob and fuel selector were also recreated in plastic card Vincent Edited May 17, 2019 by Vincent/MDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanes Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 That's looking really good and refined. I'll keep watching since the Mk. VIII is on my bucket list, too. Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vincent Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 (edited) Last for today, the landing gear control lever with the so distinc knob and the bolt at the end : Vincent Edited May 17, 2019 by Vincent/MDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaninaustria Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 Lovely work so far Vincent, nice to see your work again here at LSP! Thanks for sharing mate! Cheers Alan Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vincent Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 (edited) Work continues on the right side wall I had to redo the landing gear level, it was out of scale. You can see the T connectors on the hydraulical lines : the Mark8 had a retractable tail wheel so 2 lines will be added once the quadrant is glued in place Some devil in the details: Edited May 17, 2019 by Vincent/MDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
