Looking at fitting the engine pods.
first you have to insert these pieces shown on the instruction sheet, these box off the wheel bays.
The slots shown by the arrows are for the square ends of the fan blade parts fitted to the engine pods.
This led to difficulties in getting everything lined up and a poor fit so i removed them and the fit of the engine pods is much better and easier to fit.
the fan blades are not needed as the wont be seen because of the f.o.d guards in the intakes and the rear faces of the engines in the tail pipes

Thanks George.
ok added the fairings and flare launchers above the wings and finished off the nose section though the actual radome is only dry fitted so i can add some weight to it before i glue it on for good
