Looking good Bill. The early car-door Typhoons normally had the rear section under the canopy in the same colour as the camouflage. Only the later aircraft had the black upper sections to the cockpit and decking.

Thanks guys............
My heart almost stopped a few minutes ago. Looking over the pictures I have, The R*D aircraft is always shown as a bubble canopy, and I want to make the car door model as R*D. Then I re-read some of the notices, and low and behold, before he went off to C.O. his last squadron, the plane was repainted and R*D painted on the side of the car door plane. It was later replaced with the bubble top plane and marked R*D. So I am good to go. What I put myself thru, I should be prosecuted, but instead I am persecuted!
