Looking great Rick, go with your gut (unless some picture proves you wrong).  Really enjoying your build.

I like the color of the woodgrain. Very realistic

Thanks Guys. I appreciate the comments! I have progressed on the interior work. Actually all that is left is rigging and touch up. I added a Brass bezel to the instrument and some plumbing on the left side.

Thanks Terri. I have progressed since these photos were taken. The cockpit rigging is done and all is about ready to assemble.

So as of today it is all buttoned up and ready for just a small amount of filling and sanding, then primer.

Thanks Edo. As for your pipes I would simply insert a piece of tubing from the outside cut to meet the kit parts. ( unless your plan is to leave the side panel off).

I am catching up Rick - life has been getting in the way. The cockpit and associated details are truly impressive - the colours are so realistic. Des would have been very impressed with this.
