Procurement of Pop's Pickup is Priceless!

Thanks, Chris! Steve, that should be the same kit. I think the only differences between the two issues are the aft fuselage sections.

I was really disappointed in how this one was turning out. I could deal with the gaps on the fuselage seams and the wing fit, but there is no way to disguise the fit of the windscreen which only fits if the fuselage is closed up properly in that area. I bought this kit when it was first...

Finally got some work to show on this one. I had done some cockpit work before I started cancer treatment in March, and had gotten up to needing to add seat belts. I had to be away from home during much of the treatments, and then the side effects and need for caution about infections due to my...

Wing Nut Wings used to sell a thread that was a pretty good simulation for the streamline wires, I used that on my DH-9A. It is still probably available from whoever they got it from. I don't know if there is a trade name on the spool I have.

Built this one with one of my granddaughters:
