Thanks everyone!

Yes there's a way to get nose weight in there. As you can see, the refueling door isn't installed yet. So I'll get some in that way.

Back to work on the A-10. Cut the HUD supports off so that I can add the PE one. First need to sand and fill seams. [theshow]

Useful looking saw that. The A-10 must be a fair old size in 1/48.

That's actually not a saw. It's a Flex-I-File sander.

Nose weight in, front fuselage sanded, and refueling door on. Also test fitting the canopies. Looks to be no issues there.

Ah of course - thanks Medic - it does look like a handy bit of kit though.

The canopy looks like it fits well.

Impressive work. This is looking great. That has to be the best fitting canopy I've seen in quite some time. Way to go!
