Default RE: Top Flite Focke Wulf Fw-190 D9 Build

Hi Z,

Thanks for the info, and that sure was a beautiful Dora! Shame that it's no more. I already have the set of Spring-Airs for it, but I may be interested in the cowl and spinner. I will send you a PM. On that note, what are your thoughts on the Spring Air gear? Were you happy with their performance? The supplied air tank seems a bit small; if you used it, how many up-down cycles could you get?

Question:
I have a quick question for you guys regarding the cockpit kit. (I decided to get started on fitting it into the fuse now). The instructions indicate that the aft bulkhead fits right at the end of the cockpit deck. However, when I cut it out and test fit, it seems much too tall (see photos). Is this normal? Should I simply trim it to size? Thanks in advance for any advice.
