Great work, Kurt!
I really like the delicate seat and the awesome joystick. Looks real from here!

Hello Dan, thank you, yes I am satisfied with it

Now pull the outer panel ... over the cockpit

Part 24 ... first glue the film to the inner wall and round the hood appropriately ...

... and put on

Kind regards
Kurt

Looks like a nice fit. I'm always a little nervous wrapping the outer skin over the cockpit. Sometimes a bit of sanding is required on the bulkheads.

Just a bit of trivia here. Did you know that Bloch aircraft company was later renamed to Dassault?

Marcel Bloch used his brother's French resistance fighter name ( Nom de guerre ) for his company after WW2.

Marcel Dassault - Wikipedia

Yes Sir!

And by the way the Bloch designs are not the most appealing, but after the change of name they are beautiful. Legend said that Marcel D. said that an ugly plane can't fly as well as a beautiful plane. Is this apocryphal?

Bloch aircraft of the 1930's are really not bad looking at all given the styling of that time. Also, all were propeller driven.

When they went to the Dassault name, they built jets which are usually much slicker.

Dassault jets were the Ouragan, Mystere, Super Mystere, Mirage, Rafal and some lesser known in between.

The real good looking jet was the Mirage 3 and its variants ( in my opinion ).

But then again, airplanes are built for a purpose and not a beauty contest.

According to the assembly instructions, the frame-to-frame method is used, I'm switching to the strap-frame method here...

Round and fold the body part well, insert the self-made flap and put it together

... after inserting the bulkhead, another support is glued in.. attach the fuselage part behind the cockpit

Sincerely
Kurt
