Moshe, This is a great build. You are doing an excellent job. I've always enjoyed reading about the B-17s of the IAF. This is a great subject. Thank you for sharing it with us.

next is the back of the fusealag .i have made some adjustments to this part so ti will fit the palne im modeling ...the windows are somewhat bigger and wider (no glass) and they are not parallel to each other.beacause of this i decided to cover the interior so it will not show whit inside (nothing fancy or complicated -just a whit killer).
allso the opening for the rear gunner is too small so i had to enlarge it. last three pictuers show all the fusealag parts allmost ready to assmble.

Great project Moshe! I too have the GPM B-17 and echo Jon Dell's assessment of it. The green they used for the interior is beyond fantasy.
Definitely a case of turning a sow's ear into a silk purse. Stunning work. Mike
