In the meantime I already closed the fuselage, attached the wings, stabilizers and exhaust, but I noticed that I forgot to make pictures of the progress. :blush:

Can somebody tell me what color the RNLAF used on the under side? Was that: Bare aluminium or Light aircraft grey.

According to the instructions it was aluminium, but when I look at pictures it often looks like Light aircraft grey.

Aluminium paint (not bare) or High Speed Silver as the RAF later called it, for the RNLAF undersides.

Little time to build these days, but I made some progress.

All the decals are on and he is standing on it's own wheels now.
