Very nice Karl. I had trouble with painting windows by hand also. I found a toothpick used for cleaning edges worked really well without scratching the
plastic.

Thanks guys, much appreciated.

This is a great kit, lots of detail but goes together well.
Landing gear is a little fidly and the bracing struts put forward pressure on the main gear legs, and as these don't have very strong mounting locations they kept getting forced out (maybe i didn't fit them correctly ), but i think it should be possible to build them up completely before fitting them and not do it in stages as per the instructions.
