Well Joe, I don't know exactly what the bomb sight is supposed to look like but that little gadget looks very interesting to me.

Major improvement over something that was already a pretty good representation of what's there.

many many thanks for your kindness.
well moving slowly along.
here is the whole of what i have gotten done so far.
and just a couple of other things that have been interesting to play with.
crew access roof/pit floor
and what is going on in the pit, not much but a little.
as you can see some work has been done in the bombadier station. there are but 4 "kit" pieces. there are something like 150+ pieces for the overall. where the "cables" go under the flooring i havent figured out yet. i dont have a decent picture of it. this wont be seen in this bird but i do have the visible version in the stash. looking ahead to that problem. i will be working on the guns and the chin turrent, not much for that but a little. then i will move on to the pit itself.

Shalom.
With all that exquisite interior detail it seems a shame to button it up. Looks like a great build foe a cutaway model. The model itself thus far seems to be worth of beong displayed in a museum.
Cheers

Nice to see you doing the interior green, zinc and aluminum. Adds a lot of interest inside.
