Thanks guys.
Found another great pic. Looks like my a/c "L" got bent at some point although I think it was repaired. There's a pic taken of an intact L number JV131 allegedly at the end of the war.
Also attached are a couple of shots of work on the landing gear. Before and after shots of the tail wheel show modifications made by drilling out the lightening holes, cutting the slot in the cover that separates the upper fixed portion and the lower swivel, drilling and adding a strut from copper wire, and finally the addition of a spring strut made from copper wire. The latter is loose at this point and will get another coat of bare metal before installing.
The final pic shows work on the main gear. First off, one of the criticisms of the Eduard kit is that the tires are too thin. Checking on a scale drawing revealed that they were indeed a millimeter too narrow so I glued a sheet of plastic card between the halves. To the right can be seen one of the assembled struts with the brake line being added from stretched sprue.
More to come later tonight or tomorrow.
