that cockpit is awesome! Lovely detailing work there, if I had the space 1/32rd would be the scale to go.

 

I was a bit surprised just how big the MiG-29 is.

I don't know where you guys find the space for 1/48, but that is such a great photo Mr B. I find even 1/72 jets MiG-21 up are huge compared to prop stuff.
