As for the model itself, all fuselage formers are to small, but if you create connecting strips and get rid of one of the formers, you will be fine.
Thanks for the tip I just started cutting the cockpit section out and was doing some measuring and it's too long to fit in the section it's supposed to - so using a single former instead of double formers will solve that problem too. Do you know if the engine formers suffer the same issues?
