Drilled through the gears, into the "plate"...to be sure the holes will line up properly...

For as much bench time as I had this weekend...I don't have a whole lot to show for it!
I tend to want to slack off on ordnance, if I wait to do those things last...so I got those all knocked out.

GBU-10's and Sidewinders are from Eduard, the rest is kit stuff. (Still have some little details to add to some of the stuff...that'll happen later!)

The office is next!

The caps came with the set. The GBU's also gave the option of capped or not capped heads.



Finished up the pit...Eduard PE and Brassin seat.
