Very nice progress! :) The bent U/C are real pain.. it can be fixed but to me somehow it looks like the legs are taking back their wrong shape slowly (well, they do not end THAT much bent, but still not narrow..).. :(

If you look at the one on the right (the port leg) you can see where the door mounts are warped to where no amount of bending will fix it. The leg was a lot more curved on the sprue!

Great progress Mumbles, looking good,

Sean

Thanks :)

Looking so good with that exposed engine when she came up on her legs. Will be even better with the propeller added. Lovely! :thumbsup2:

Thanks, speaking of propellors. . .

Final assembly underway:
