Very quick update, before I hit the road for Sydney. Ive nearly completed the decaling process, put the starboard side clearshield wiper on, touched up some of the unfinished painitng (like that rooftop fin thingy). I tidied up the side hatches. I think I will leave them in the open position, to improve view into the interior, but the fit into the hatchway is just not that great.
Ive fitted the engine turbine and the exhaust Looks pretty good to me, so the engine inspection hatches should be fixed in the open position IMO. I finished up taking off the decal on these hatches and spraying the red stripe on. It looks a lot better to me
Its getting pretty close to finishing, but I still have the rear bumper to fit, the nose antennae and some bits at the rear near the tail,
I still cant make up my mind about the tail boom antennae. I can still fit them if I want to, but I just cant make up my mind about whether they were there or not there in 1968
