Hi deckape,

This must be an older print of the famous and current GPM model, I guess?

I have the current model (unbuilt as yet). It is a model with many parts and a complicated one, at that. A very nice presentation! Thank you.

Good luck with the continued build!
Bengt

Thanks buddy for the reply I guess these type of seats were not designed for comfort. Seats like this give you a good case of Hemroids LOLllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll. But I guess they done their job Thanks buddy

Yep it is this is a old print the newer is miles better but this old kit will do for now. as to its construction goes together well without any fit issues as of yet. This kit reminds me of the old Peter Zorn Ford Tri Motor kit. I am enjoying the kit so far stay tuned I will have another update tomorrow. Thanks Bengt

The seats are those like in the original 2CV, a French car from the 1950's if I'm not mistaken. Good progress you're making here Boats. Auntie Ju takes shape.

Regards,
Erik

Back at the build starti8ng to make head way now just completed the forward skins and their formers in place letting the unit dry for the night toimorrow I will join the aft part of the fuselage and its interior details too. so far no fit issues the only issue that is a cosmetic issue is the mis alignment of bottom color on the bottom front nose of the ship. Other then that everything is going together smoothly. Here are the update pictures.
