Chuzam Naj Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 As planned, I started the Curtiss P40N-5-CU Daddy Please/Milk Wagon Express build. As usual, I start with the cockpit. I am in the phase of varnishing with glossy varnish, without oil wash yet. I am waiting for the sanding of the fuselagejoint - the tail part. Then I'll move on to riveting.

Chuzam Naj Posted April 11 Author Share Posted April 11 Guys, slowly but surely. The cockpit is almost ready to be glued into place, as is the cooling system. The oil wash dries, so I'm waiting for spraying with matte varnish. The next step will be the unpopular riveting. Actually the title of the topic is not entirely accurate. This is a special edition Eduard with all accessories. scvrobeson, Landrotten Highlander, Shoggz and 13 others 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuzam Naj Posted April 16 Author Share Posted April 16 Not much over the weekend. Cone finally blue-white. There are also period photos where it is white. The brake hoses are still missing on the chassis kegs. Martinnfb, Azgaron, Landrotten Highlander and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggles87 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Excellent work so far. I assume that the instrument panel is Eduard, I’m always impressed when you can see the numbers on the dials, most of theirs seem to use just dashes. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end I decided on Yahu. It had a finer print structure. Biggles87 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
