I am quite happy with this one, it was a lot of fun for just one euro. I like how the scratch cockpit is visible. But the weathering could/should have been at tad more restrained for a civil aircraft.

That's one cool looking kit. It came out pretty good after all the problems you've had with the wings.

Don't you believe it! I spent 7 years as an Aircraft engineer, working on all sorts of GA type aircraft, before I had to leave and get a :quotes: real :quotes: job.

You wouldn't believe how dirty those things can get, and how quickly too (it used to take me hours to clean them sometimes). It always makes me laugh when people build GA and Civil aircraft with a pristine finish and if you'd ever spent an hour lying under one, on a cold floor, cleaning all the oil and crap from the undersides you'd know what I mean. Your finish looks spot on to me.

Great work Borg, it's a beautful build!
