This radar reflector looks the part behind the clear part. Well done!
The Eduard pre-painted cockpit parts look amazing. Hope they will be seen later. An eye catcher!

Thanks for the comments guys, it seems to help in a motivational way.
Although, I can't say I achieved a whole lot over the holiday. The seats were installed fully harnessed, and then the cockpit module set in the fuselage. With it clamped and the glue setting, I thought a good time to take a couple of pics:
The crude fire extinguisher is just sitting there just now. I'm still trying to decide where it will go and if I'll dress up that back wall or not. I don't know what was all on the wall, but, definitely there were switch banks and other devices that the kit leaves out. As per indications on this photo:
Till next time, have a good one!

You could cut very thinly stretched sprue to simulate the hundreds of knobs. Then, glue them all (

) to a very thin piece of plastic and slide this one in place using Gator Glue or similar. But man, I do not wanna need to do this chore...
