Wing flaps redux
I have updated the position and location of the wing flaps based on the sketches that our member "Kit163" sent ( thank you ). It is interesting that with all the photos that I have of this aircraft and the other photos floating on the internet, there is no single close up photo showing the flaps deployed.
I removed the kit part's flap hinges and my pins and covered up the slots.   Then I inserted shorter pins where they would be attached to the wing flap rails  Here are the rails made of wood. They will be trimmed later on as well  And the flaps are on. Bottom view     and top view   Are they 100% correct now? Not sure since I have no closeup of the real thing, but for artistic purposes, it is complete now.  Isaac

You make a very good model Sir, Stuffed if I know how I can replicate it but I plan to as soon as I avoid being evicted. I have the need....... to build one of these amazing planes. Thank you for the education and inspiration.

Ejection seat
The ejection seat was a fun project I have to admit. Lots of small parts and I used almost all except for a few microscopy parts which are impossible to cut even with a very sharp knife.
After spending about 3 hours or so here it is        most of the detail below the arm rest sides will not be visible.... but..... it does not fit in the cockpit ?    I will have to figure it out a bit later. For now, I will get my frustration out by playing Call of Duty! Isaac

Thanks guys. It was fun building the seat.
I also removed the two small panels on the sides bottom and the seat fits fine in the cockpit now. Pics later Isaac
