Glad your doing better Terry. I have a close friend with arthritis and they have a tough time with it. She sleeps about two hours a night because she won't be able to move it she stays still any longer.

Thanks very much indeed, Aaron and Hugh.
Well, it's finished, although I want to re-touch a couple of small areas, including the prop, when I'm not so stiff.
Here's the pics, and thanks very much for your interest during this build. Particular thanks to Gary and Tony for their help with pics and info.

Thanks very much chaps, I really do appreciate it.
Andy, I thought the port lamp cover had moved too, but on checking, it's actually flush! I had a close look at it through the magnifying glass, and it is even all round. However, if I hold the model and turn it, at certain angles the refracted light, through the cover, shows the Interior Green edges of the lamp housing in a distorted fashion, and makes the whole thing look misaligned - very strange!!
I will admit though, these were the only parts in the kit which were less than a perfect fit (apart from the engine bulkhead to fuselage joint, which was a bit vague), and I had to file the inside edges of each lamp housing, before making and fitting the lamps themselves, and then the transparent covers.
Have a look at the first pic in the series - the cover looks fine at that angle !
