The pilot's office looks nice, Isaac.

Cockpit installed
Here is the cockpit tub ready
installed Here is a crazy feature; The glare shield has no part underneath it and thus a gap is created!!!!!!!!!! Why? The cockpit rails also have a gap....... Isaac

This is very strange, Isaac. Will the canopy cover the gap?

Isaac, it looks to me the glare shield needs to be more curved to cover the instrument panel on either side, perhaps this will close the gap. Then also the cockpit rails will be lower, and straight. At least, that's what I grasp from the pictures.
The model and cockpit arrangement looks much different from the KK F104G. I found that model had a very smart cockpit design, and a perfect fit. Cheers, Erik |

Erik The glare shield is simply too small for the open area below. There is no reason for the opening. Yes, it is a different cockpit compared to the KK version. Isaac

gear bays are some of the best places to add additional details. you should go out and get some wire and replicate cables and such in side the gear bay. it would go a long way to improving the realism of the model

The main gear doors are always in a semi closed position and very little is visible there. Also, I have a hard time with tiny parts and will not use many of them at all. Thanks Isaac

Isaac, you produce cracking airframes and this is no different. I look forward to seeing many more when this is completed.
