Cockpit Installed
Wing attached
Unfortunately I broke the gunsight off installing the cockpit and the glass went flying off into oblivion. Will need to fix it and re-install later....

She is looking gorgeous! I’m sure that you can scratch up new glass for the gunsight easy enough.

She’s looking great. I’ve had it happen to me before. Thankfully, I had a spare in my aircraft parts bin.

Thanks everyone. No the gunsight is not that big of a deal -- should be an ez fix.

Tough luck on the gunsight. But, given your abilities, I'm sure you will make a most excellent repair! She looks great!

Well it took me a full hour to get one main gear strut on.. ugggh. It's amazing how 30 year old build memories return in an instant...
