After seeing steves ( @Steve-the-Duck ) amazing scratchbuilt Avro Aldershot , it reminded me of this aircraft . A fairly obscure subject but one that I always liked the look of , so I bit the bullet and got one . Its the ancient KP models kit , quite reasonable for a 1982 tooling . Its got a bit of flash and mould seams to clean up but nothing major . I started with the cockpit , the neatly done instrument panels (which were wooden on the aircraft ) came up nice with a careful paint and the rest of the pit is ok too. I just have to put on some suitable belts then I can get the fuselage together .IMG_8130.webpIMG_8131.webpIMG_8132.webpIMG_8133.webpIMG_8134.webpIMG_8136.webpIMG_8137.webp

A nice looking kit Tony. Looks to have some nice surface detail. Great start on the cockpit.
Cheers joe its an interesting aircraft . Large for a single engine ( bigger wingspan than a swordfish at 50 ft)
 
A plane I've never heard of. Love the box art - old fashioned but certainly eye-catching.
You're off to a good start.
