Default RE: CMP Hellcat

I Just ordered the Hellcat and the big P-40 from AK. I ordered Sunday A.m. and had the plane on Wednesday.

Both Genuine CMP and are beautiful. The pictures don't do these planes justice (especially the P-40).

Anyway, I found one thing odd about my Hellcat. The firewall is not glued to the fuse. There is bulkheads and trays already mounted in such a way that you can't remove the firewall to glue it. I will put the epoxy or resin through the hole in the fuse that the tank sticks out of. I bit of a pain but not impossible. Anyone else have this happen? It may be mentioned in the instructions but I have not opened them yet. Overall very high quality throughout.
