Thank you, every body, for the kind comments AND accolades. I finally sewed the fuse together and did some inserts and with that out of the way I had a chance to really pay attention to the fuselage seams They are pretty much all even with a few exceptions so those will be dealt with accordingly.... Muwahahahaha.

I did some dry fit of the wings and tail surfaces and they seem to be fitting better this time.

You really jumped into this one. Great job. Did it hover in you mind for long before you got into it?

Really, Mikey. it's not that difficult a kit but there are issues as with all kits. a couple of them being the intakes and the pylons.
I always wanted to do this since I found out about the Wake Island Avengers. There is some personal connection there. I like the Harrier II plus because of the nose extension.

I thought about the kit for a bit but this one was the right price. :tongue:
