Goodmorning gentlemen, (well it is here LOL)

thanks for the great comments,
As for the the kit, your correct lifer.

the Paint finish is matt, giving that more scale look.

the retracts are Robart but you are correct that you can only order thru KMP as they have a contract to sell them, but at a great price, deal package.

the cockpit was a build up kit from Dynamic Balsa, It was a large bag of vaccum form parts and balsa, but it all came together.

more pics to come today, stand by.
