Amazing how long its been since I added anything to this thread!!!

This post relates directly to the recently released P51B GQ-Z 46877 Eisenhower Mustang model
...but might also affect other P51B/C Mustang kits.
This is the reason I am duplicating the post here.
A small error in the Instruction pages of this kit has been brought to my attention.
To be honest, this same error may appear in some earlier kits.
Hopefully whomever builds a kit will work their way through the problem.
There is no part 75X on this model!
(This is because I re-used the Instruct pages from an earlier Mustang release.)
Looks like I reversed the location of two small Formers that fit inside the belly scoop of the Mustang.
Formers N and O ...are shown reversed on the first page of the Instructions.
They are correctly positioned on the later page (in the 3D cutaway drawing).
Thanks to Shane for the photo.
To be honest, its a small issue since the formers themselves are almost exactly the same shape and size.
And you must also consider this is not an overly complicated design (of model).
It doesn't have the precision of many high end models and may require a little creative tolerance.
The lower scoop area of this Mustang has always required a bit of patience to get it right.
Depending on how you assemble the lower parts, you might find switching formers around improves things! lol
Sometimes I rush through things, don't fit parts eaxctly right, and end up trimming, bending, squeezing other parts into place.
So, I never expect any kit to be perfectly accurate.
Anyway...I have uploaded a newly edited version of the model with the Instruction page updates.
If you bought it from ecardmodels, just log-in and download it again (from your account).
You will receive the newest version when you re-download.
(...and remember to delete the older version!)
Sorry for the inconvenience.
