Nice paint job H and I agree, the gunner ain't facing the right way. I wonder how many times the gunners of the Stuka shredded their own tail?

Harry are you sure it's the tail gunner's seat? If yes I think you took incorrect part. The seat looked different from I know.

Here you are an example.The pilot's seat on left and the tail gunner's one on right.

Exactly like the one in the very nice diagram. I'll take pics soon, check out my thread with my favorite pictures from the trip! I'm trying to sort them and then I can get some work on the P-40

Thanks! I've just been doing bits and pieces. The headrest is painted brown on the pilots chair, It was hard with the Testors paint being so watery! But I did it.....
