Thank you sir!
Went ahead and looked at SH #2 to see how much work there is. Yeah, this is gonna take a while.

Probably not as long as you think.
I'm surprised by how big the wing is on the Hornet - a lot more that I thought.

Yeah it's much bigger than a Legacy Hornet.

So going through some aftermarket stuff, I remembered that I had a Black Box cockpit for the Hasegawa F/A-18F. Looking at it, I didn't like the cockpit but it did come with two resin seats. I may use them instead of the kit ones. What do you guys think?

Effort versus visibility, and color. But, it boils down to what you want. And how do the kit seats feel about this rejection? Their whole existence was molded to be in a kit.
Oh go ahead and use the resin.

Oh I always like the resin seats. But save the kit seat. You never know when a kit in your stash may need it.
