Thanks guys, I'm pretty pleased with this one.

Decals are on. No serial because it's very plane in photos it was painted over. Aussies are very Devil May Care about some things.

Now the details, gear legs, antennas and such.

Nice Bill.

Beauty Bill. I found trying to get the sliding canopy in the open position to be a challenge. Sticks out funny.

You are right about the canopy. I could leave it off and say it blew off in flight???????

Next post will be the Finish!

Looks good Bill. What I did with my canopy was thin it a bit by filing the areas behind the sloping frame. Helped a bit but not fully. Best fix would be to get or make a vac formed one.

I'll look at thinning a bit, don't want to go the expense of a vac canopy at this point.

Thanks for all the great comments.
