Incredibly beautiful craftsmanship! Compared to this, my best model looks like a pile of ***** !!!

How do you think I feel Terry, if you think yours are a pile of do dos. Really, really, fine work there, and a pleasure to watch

Here is a A6M2 side view and rear view of original plan, Panagiotis.

A Oxygen bottle
B Direction radio receiver
C Compressed air bottle
D DC transformer
E Connector box for the direction radio receiver
F Carbon dioxide bottle as extinguisher
G Storage battery

A bladder is shown in the rear space though I do not know if it was actually equipped.
A friend of mine says it was.

Thanks a lot for your valuable info, my friend! Point is, I've already done the cockpit but, having seen the plans you so kindly provided us with, I think the position of the items in the cockpit and aft of it is correctly done..I think..
Well,below is my attempt to create this specific area in my favorite 1/48 scale..

Thanks for looking!
Cheers,
Panagiotis.
