I didn't have an hour but still checked it out. He did an amazing job.

On another note, got orders in with Gaspatch for the RCF type turnbuckles and I have yet to figure out how they install.

I did, you know me, I want instant satisfaction. I keep looking at those flying wires as opposed to the control lines.

Well slightly to the side of this topic, my "Grail" kit is coming up for sale from AirscalePro. A 1/32 scale Dornier Do17Z. It is pricey as hell, but it is also a mixed media kit so the price is probably what I would pay for all the aftermarket stuff to flush it out. It goes on sale at 6PM UK time today the 15th.

Here is a link if anyone is interested

I once ordered some cockpit placards and they didnt arrive and of course as soon as they sent some more the first lot tuned up so i returned them and the address was a private house in brighton i think, on the coast about 35 miles away. i Since found out that fantasy print shop print his decals.

You searched for cockpit - Fantasy Printshop

Well...., I did the preorder. It is a mixed media kit with main parts molded styrene, 3D print parts, and PE. Yeah, it was a BIG bite what with tarrifs and exchange rate.
Seems I remember @jknaus getting their Typhoon kit and liking it.
I have been waiting ever since the Revell Ju88, and He111 kits for this in 1/32. Always figured Zouki Mura would do one, but this looks like it is going to be it.
