Rata, thanks man, I'm having fun building this one, partly because I've wanted one of these for quite awhile..

Dan I should not think you haven't already built those, just a comment for anyone wanting to build a AH model...
Argh as Charles Shultz would say ha

It is progressing smoothly, Glen! Keep up the good work

Thanks Ricardo, here is a rather fanciful picture of parts together, is fun to see what the plane looks like at least "flying"..
also a pic trying to show the unique fuse shape of this plane, reminiscent of the 262 shark shape

Sorry to bore you, but one more picture I thought should be included, the profile of this aircraft being distinctive and very cool to my eye.
I have little parts will hope to do, but committments this next week may postpone progress, before can think about permanent attachment of the canopy need to put together the gunsight, the armor plate in front of that, and the oil cooler that goes below and behind the engine. May be awhile until any updates..
