   A fine introduction indeed Spyros. Your engine has been beautifully finished and your interior work is very clean and detailed, in fact spectacular! I have this Kit to build in future and will follow, and learn, from your project here.
Cheers,
Lance

Miss Terri, Marc, Lance, Juan, Rick, Borsos and Bud (again) thank you all for your kind wordos.

Cockpit assembly.

I added foot belts on the rudder bar and the wires for fudder and elevators. Iused 0.1mm FireLine fishing line tied to a 1/48 one end GasPtch turnbuckles with a 0.04mm wire from Scentific Wire Company.


Some dry fit test with the fuselage sides.


Attach the engine to the frame.


And some test again.


Happy weekend
Spyros

Great update Spyros, It`s coming together beautifully. Your instrument panel is as real as any I`ve seen here before, and the engine now mounted as well, wonderful work!
Cheers,
