We will be here all week or until the massive rain storm hits Southern California.
Oh, wait—you’re here, too.

Rain storms are no longer a factor. That was a pretty amazing series of clips—big tank, very, very powerful tank!

Just checked the latest radar pic: A massive, strong cell is approaching and already over the northern LA County/Simi Valley area area. Pasadena is gonna be hit hard and heavy. I'll be lucky to catch the very edge of this when it passes by. Man, some people get all the fun!
Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled program.....

Re: 1/48 Hobbycraft DH.100 Vampire F.1
Yup... more rain that we certainly need here.
Well, after numerous speed bumps getting the seat harness on ( seat broke off the tub, stick broke off tub, lap belt lost then found hours later, lap belt buckles lost and found, etc. ) I have finally completed the cockpit and have it ready to be glued in place. I also glued the IP in place into the upper fuselage half...
finally some visible progress!!!!

It's looking nice! I may have missed it but are those PE or fabric harnesses?
