Hi Nigel,
I have no clue as to the authenticity of this Tabloid. I'm hoping someone within our forum will know the history.  ;)
It would be nice to know if the cockpit is meant to be as sparse as shown in the first image :o


Cheers,
Bvb

Those are great shots Bob--looks like I'm going to have more detailing than I had thought, but it's all good.  ;D

I have another cockpit photo of a flying reproduction of the Tabloid which shows a complete IP. 

Thanks to everyone for your terrific support with so many photos.  I now have a much better idea of how this aeroplane was put together, both inside and out, that is just not clearly conveyed by scale drawings alone.

Regards,

Bob
