Old Frogleton

as this is in flight I modified this panel closed up 

assembling the basic but really all that you need interior considering you see almost nothing of the insides later 

Lots of parts off the sprues, I am very lucky in the fact that the bag remained sealed and so far it looks like nothing is missing.

Honestly the box before I opened it sounded like a box of breakfast cereal rather than a model kit! 

Very attractive box art 

The fuselage cleaned up and interior parts added prior to priming the insides, the model has been taped up to help align these parts whilst they dry

tailplanes on 

fin and rudder assembly 

fin and rudders fitted along with the kit supplied main wing spar 

Front glass on 

rear glass on 

wings test fit 

despite my efforts to keep things square (which they are) there is actually a mould sag in the attachment points for the tailplane making them a bit wonky but this kit was 30 years old when produced!

the wings built and on 

Today as seen in the photographs attached it has come to work with me today.

It is looking quite at home there with the Mosquito and clears the upper computer fan satisfactorily. I had a sudden thought that it would be best to test fit it in, stand and all before going further and needing to plan somewhere to keep it at home if it hadn't of fitted into the space. (the students will think I am a nut no doubt but then are they wrong? lol)
