As my last one got left for to and parts have gone walkabout so it's time to start a new one and as I know what I am in for it shouldn't be that scary.
So here's the contents of the box.[ATTACH]324838[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324839[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324840[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324841[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324842[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324843[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324844[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324845[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324846[/ATTACH][ATTACH]324847[/ATTACH]

Peter,
That should keep you out of mischief for a while. I will pull up a chair and follow along.

Hi Peter
That is a lot of plastic. As Scottie says it will keep you busy for quite a while.

Looking good Peter. I’ve been building one of these on and off for the past year or so. It was all going well until I came to fit the engine cowlings. Gaps galore. Hopefully I will finish it soon.Look forward to seeing yours come together.

Everything lines up really well if you take your time with it. The only bad fitting parts are the upper engine cowlings.Not a problem if you want the engine on display

Thanks Dave, be good to follow Peters progress and indeed look at the engine cowling :thinking:. Just wonder why everything lines up but an issue with the cowling.

I thought it was something I had done wrong. But even Barry W had problems with his
