Hello, This is a very good job, congratulations. However I thought the upper parts of thecockpit was Interior Green. This aircraft awakes my memories: It was the first plane that I exposed in public at my local dealer. I was 10 years old in 1975. I will follow with attention your job. Best regards from France.

Hello, I like this plane a lot, good begining! :thumbsup:/> Best regards. PS: Sorry, but Google is my english :lol:/>

Hello, Firt thank a lot for your comments. The cockpit amenagement is nearing its end. Having published a few days ago this post on various foreign forums , a user of ARC Forum send to me a URL of a photoscope taken before the restoration of the aircraft. I found some very interesting and photographs and particulary a picture of the layout engine. It was too tempting(It's your fault Super Heat! :thumbsup:/> !) So I cut the right engine cover . Of course a nasty surprise waiting for me The two side walls exceeds the opening about 2 minimeters : I will cheat a little by sticking a piece of

It's Working now, thanks a lot. Your pictures are very useful for me, i don't had any clear photograph of the left side of the cockpit (my interpretation of other photograph was good). I don't have any photograph of the rear wheel and there is a correction to make on the kit. If i hade this photograph before i would have open a motor. A question (if you know): I don't see any radiator on the motor, there is none? Best regards. Sorry for my bad (Froggy?) english. Jean.

Thank you.

Hello, Thanks a lot. For your URL, the photobucket site ask for a password, so i cant see your photograph. Best regards

Finally, I glued the seat. There are steps we are happy to pass the seat was a nightmare to handle. In passing I lengthened the straps of the file. PHEW! For your viewing pleasure, I put three pictures of what we perceive through the hatch: Here are the rudders pedals: The control console left (the throttle will come on that later.) And after a long session working hard over fishing line invisible under poor lighting, the pedals mounted with control cables along the seat. But it's done: Phew: A note on the last picture the structure at the top of the bubble. Initially I h

Here it is built: About this horizontal tube structure actually contained battery lamps which acted as the batteries on this plane! The handle system, it is still incomplete, still missing four starters tubes plate under the handle to the seat and legs to support the mechanism.: Here it is complete: I finished the seat belts and they are too short on the top, they should be extended: Then I'm interested in the front top of the cockpit: At the begining: The cabling descend into the lower portion (a great moment in perspective for closing the fuselage ...): A big gap in the

I painted the back of the cockpit and began to detail the structure: I painted the front of the cockpit, I added the cabling running along the left side of the cockpit: As the airbrush was out I also painted the seat on which I added the wheels that are in front and which serve to guide the rudders cables. I painted the gray cushion after photos of the cockpit before restoration (thank you Mr. Roman). I attacked the rear mounting structure with the fuel tank:

I went to the fuselage structure, I finally decided to completely hollow out the bottom of the cockpit I worked on Fuel tanks which is just behind the seat. After the assets shown to a friend and have another look photos of the place, I decided to enlarge them (the two tanks not located on the structure). I finally made a blank building of the structure, final tanks will descend lower: I finally made a blank building of the structure, final tanks will descend lower: By maiding a blank mounting of the seat, I broke for the third time the seat support, GRRRR! I remade the handle w

Hello, I decided to build the "flying pancake" from special hobby (the plane have just being restored, so there are many interesting pictures on the net) The model itself left me a bit disapointed, even if it is a "short run" one. Parts present a kind of graininess (which may be specific to my copy) then i will have a lot of sanding work (the bottom of the plane is aluminum dope). There are many unused parts leaving presaged the future release of a high tech version . There are some resin parts for the train which I can not understand the usefulness, given the form they could be molded in
