Thanks Gents!

Well the construction stage is finished - it's a really fast build this kit. Now time for some paint. The fit of the cabin windows is awful, so I'm going to use Glue-n-Glaze instead.

Cheers!

It's a PVA based glue (I'm guessing) that is good for attaching clear parts and actually making small bits of Glazing - I did the upper windows of my OH-6 with it years ago.
