Just a very few hours of extra work this week... the ECM pod was glassed and painted but not with epoxy, but with water based poliurethane wood finish and CA glue.. seems that is easier and less messier than working with epoxy and the results seem good.

The tail hook was made of a tube of aluminum and some balsa.. and some more cockpit work: The panels and dashboard looked flat, until I glued some short pieces of a paperclip imitating switches with a small blob of white or red paint at the tip of them. My biggest accomplishment was using zip ties with shrink tube for the control stick, throttle and ejection seat handles.(!)
Lots of fun doing this at my mancave in a lazy, rainy saturday....
