Thanks for the comments everyone. Since I do not understand Polish, I am using only the diagrams and trying to follow them strictly in order. I could "add" a gap between the rear instrument panel and the front seat, but unless it's absolutely necessary I try not to add/change a kit.

So far the fit is okay and I need only to cut the two adjoining formers exactly the same. I do not like so much the butt glue method, but when I tried to use gluing strips with one former on two parts Maly's A-10 it did not come out so good and I returned to the butt glue method there. That kit b.t.w. is still waiting to be completed.

Whatever shortcomings the kit may have aside, your build looks great.

Small progress on the nose and tail. Next will be the vertical stabilizer.

Very crisp and clean, Moshe! I love that mini clamp being used on the tail.

Thanks Ron. I have two of these very useful hair clamps and they are with me about 40 years already (the only card modeling tools that lasted that long with me). My mother had plenty of them, and the first time I saw them, I grabbed them and never gave back :D

Got that Apache as well, so I'm following your thread with big interest. Nice and clean build, Moshe!

Ron, If you are looking for hair clamps as mine, you will need a time machine :D The other halves do not use this kind anymore.

<<Returns home from unsuccessful search...heavy sigh>>

Apparently that is the case but it has given me some ideas for making some mini and micro clamps.
