Looks great. I need to dig mine out and figure out why I gave up in it. I think it had something to do with the nose section

Thank you all.

For fubar57:
It was slightly difficult to assemble the nosegear well/ radar housing combination properly to the fuselage. Some extra styrene strips were needed. Another problem was to find enough room for the counterweight. I added it some grams more than in the instruction sheet was told.
