Hi Gents,
Many thanks from you esteemed forum members and of course Des (the 'master')  :)
I'm getting close to closing the fuselage so we';ll see just how much of the detail is actually visible - not much I'm guessing  ::)

You're off to a very impressive start, Mike!  Your interior, thus far, is spectacular.  Have you settled on a scheme, yet?
Cheers,
Bud

As expected, not much of the cockpit detail can be seen once the fuselage is closed - at least I know it's there.

Even though much of the interior detail is hidden, what can be seen is superb, it is as close to looking at the real thing as possible, very well done.
