Sorry Mick, late in as usual (story of my life). See you're on a wingy thing kick now and this one is looking good so far. You must be enjoying yourself between butlering and building. I hope the good lady is doing better and has a speedy recovery. Shame about the missiles and the lousy destructions. You could maybe fake them and add them to the mix though. Just a thought..........

Prost

Hi Allen
Thank you she’s well recovered now probably helped by giving it me . I have one more windy one and it’s a biggy then I have another piece of armour to have a go at. I might just reconsider the missiles if I can find a decent pic.
Take care

That's looking great Mick !
The cockpit is a piece of art all on it's own

Many thanks Andy, my favourite part of windy builds

Mick,
Glad to know your on the mend. Nice work with the hydraulic lines.

Thanks Scottie, got to try and start running again but at the moment walking the limit

 

[Allen Dewire]

Wow, Sorry to hear that Mick...I really hope you get over it quickly and back to normal Buddy. Nobody needs the crap anyway. I wouldn't try to start running too soon until you get your strength back......It's better to walk down to the pub rather than trying to run there right now....

BTW, maybe you could Gurgle up some pics to help out with the missiles. There must be some pics out there..........

Gute Besserung
Allen

More progress today, drop tanks painted, found some missile pylons so wingtip sidewinders are a go. Nothing in the instructions for them but there are decals??? Masked up the main body and undercoated it. Landing lights fitted and canopies masked.

South facing half bay, much improved since the recent fitting of some material blinds which diffuse the light nicely
