Due to other commitments I didn't get to start at the weekend but made a start yesterday. You may be questioning my choice of a SHAR1, but it will be finished in the markings of 899 Naval Air Squadron, who were the "trainers" for the type. Also thanks to andyf117, I also have the colourful anniversary markings so thought I'd best make a start. This is the kit, which I'm sure we're familiar with: At the other end of the build she will hopefully be adorned with a selection of the following markings: So the first hurdle is right at the start - this is what they call a seat? It's not much to work with and I tried to use either one of a couple of AM seats I had availablebut as space is so tight in the pit I have decided to stick with what I have and to try and taffy it up - I've made a start: I've also started to paint the pit and assemble the engine (I'd like to do more with it but don't think I have enough time, so it will not be on show: Onething that is "de rigeur" for Harrier's is to droop open the auxiliary intake doors which is being done, and because I like it I have cut the flaps away to be added at a drooped angle later on: It's a slow start I know but things will get better once I get past the fidgety stages. So without further ado - thanks to our hosts Rob G, Jockney, and Col. for keeping us all in check and I hope you all have a problem free build (🤣 did I really just say that?) Thanks for looking.....
