Coming on nicely Joe!!

I also spotted the step for fitting the closed canopy completely by chance - just have to make sure that I actually do it!. I also have to trim the tail place in the same way to get the rudder on! Talking about not making it easy!!

Thanks Andrew. Some of the instructions are a bit cryptic, but it's more my fault for doing modelling whilst tired.

Looks excellent joe, wing roots closed up nicely . You would think that more manufacturers would use a rigid spar system to ensure the correct dihedral on spits as its so easy to get one wing higher than the other or a too flat profile .

Slow progress with little bench time, but the Spitfire has received it's lower colour of Sky.
