With the arrival of spring, the temperature has improved and the time spent on the bench and really increased. More progress and is approaching the end.

Decals, shipping and oil leakage. Then applied the Alclad Klear Kote to protect the decals.

Nice. Wish they'd make decals that look weathered........

That is looking absolutely gorgeous Ajcmac, will be happy if i can get mine looking half as good!

Thanks for the info on the paint as well, was going to have a go with the gunze colours straight from the bottle on mine but yours look so good its tempting to have a go at mixing them...

Stu,

Welcome to the site. As far as the antenna wires are concerned.... these going from the horizontal stabilizers to the fuselage sides weren't the radio wires but the IFF ones.

Wurger - thanks for the kind welcome and all you guys for the information, I need to stop lurking int he dark and put something up

Looking forwards to the next update Ajcmac

I want to thank everyone who followed and commented on this topic :notworthy:

Also thank Wurger for information provided :occasion5:

To all my thanks.

The rear-view mirror is not yet glued. The glue that I normally use to glue the PE's (cyanoacrylate glue) leaves whitish stains.I'm trying to find a glue for PE's that does not leave those stains.
