Moving on fast! I like it! Does the kit offer posable dive brakes? Meaning is it an option to show them open? I have not opened my kit yet.

Nice Wayne, always liked the Skyraider - I'm sure this will inspire me to get around to building one!

Nice Wayne. Robert, the brakes can be posed open but there is nothing in there save for the hydraulic cylinder which has been remove in the photo below. It's been years but I think the decals are designed for the open position as well as there is no way that I could have cut them to match the open door
