I'm doing this to save my sanity from all the PE bending I'm doing on the other build. Haven't got a subject yet

There's not much to this kit so I hope it goes quickly. OOB, might add harnesses.

Everyone has to have an outlet George.

Added innards to Post #2. Interior is pretty plain. The rudder pedals are just posts so I added Eduard plastic pedals to the post

​

I very briefly though about trying to shoe-horn the Eduard plastic cockpit parts in here....briefly

Thanks all. Added some colour and "glass" to the IP. I was gonna make some seat belts but then I remembered I had some fibre ones. As you can see, I've already made a set for another build. Just gotta remember which one so I can see which glue I used

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Good progress George.

nice work Geo, i've built 2 of this kit and have another in the stash, my type of kit, not too many tiny detail bits you cant see when done !

 

[Crimea_River]

Good to see you back at it Geo.

Started on the belts. No instructions, just after shots. When I used these the first time I found instructions for the 1:32 version and they would have you thread, loop and re-thread the harness through the various hardware. Ain't gonna happen in this scale, harnesses are too wide

They look interesting George, what material is it!

 

[fubar57]

Not sure. Here's the only info I have on these, 1:32 of course..... シートベルトHD- 有限会社 和巧

Good luck finding a tiny needle to do the stitching.
