Thanks everyone for stopping in. B)
I've been a little sluggish off the start on this one but had the day off today and was hoping to get the fuse closed up. Unfortunately I had a tussle with the carpet monster after tweezerpulting one of the itty bitty side windows into its domain. Took me nearly an hour of hunting to make him cough it up. I'm pretty stingy and usually only feed him sprue scrapings so he was pretty reluctant to give up such a prime piece.
Anyway, just have to do a wash and install said side windows and then I can close it up. This cockpit is so nice I have to keep checking the box to remind myself that it is indeed an airfix kit.

You are certainly right about that being a nice model .
Definitely a major improvement over the one they made in the last century

Wonderful Job. Such nice Detail Dave, well done!
I find the Swordfish a horrible airplane, but I was surprised when I saw one "in the flesh" in Duxford - they were just massive!
Looking Forward to your Progress.
Cheers
