I wonder if it's an error saying MK-83 Snakeyes, most likely it'll be Mk-82 Snakeyes but one can hope.

Looking forward to this as I already have some decals for it, but I would rather have kept the wing as one that can be folded rather than just a one piece one.

I hope this one fits better than the first release.

I have hade some problems with the air intakes, vague placement of the cockpit tub and the canopy.

From test fitting the only part that looked OK was the folded wings. I am normaly not a complainer but my half way build is now back in the box and hopefully will be finished next year.

Cheers
