Ok so as i have completed entries for the transport and twin engine portions of this group build, thought i may as well go the whole hog and add an eastern front entry
Eduards weekend edition is a pretty low part count kit and the single subject is an uncomplicated paint scheme.

the kit, picture from here http://modelingmadness.com/scott/allies/previews/eduard/8461a.jpg

On to the seat and radio compartment, assembled and painted, the radio gear and shelf is very different to the few pictures i have of this area, the pics show the radios mounted on the fuselage side.
The red object i don't know what it is but painted it red to break up the grey !



Now the instruction sheet has you join the radio shelf to the top of the seat, but if you do this that part will stick out of the fuselage



Luckily there is a shallow depression in the fuselage side that shows where the radio shelf should sit to ensure a proper fit
