Superb cockpit tube Wayne, after reading your comment in the 'upset you today' thread, I can imagine the trauma you may have been having. Hope it worked out.

Thanks Guys...Oh, I got the b!tch to fit ok Vic.....it just ate up too much time to get there...!

While i ponder some extra detail on the side walls, have moved on to the 'new' set of wings......I say this because i had put the wings together weeks ago and had done most of the sanding work.....when the other day studying 122/222 I noticed one really obvious thing I had failed to notice...the wings I had prepped were not Slatted!!!! So it was back into the other Phantom kit for the slatted wings, these are glued together and am working on the sanding.....pics tomorrow!

Here ya go!

The Non Slatted first, the Bulges on top of the slatted wings still needs to be removed...and the outer extended slats added.

You can easily pick out the bulges on the lower wing of the slated version, these fairings cover the actuators fo the manoeuvring slats on the wing leading edges.
