Great work, love the painted markings. It's looking like a very handsome aircraft. You must be very pleased with it!

Started working on the floats. I couldn’t find the plastic mooring rings that came in the kit (I started this project several years ago, so who knows where they went), so I filled in the hole and made a ring out of copper wire and threaded a jump ring threw them and glued into the floats.

I decided to install a ring with a brace onto the center brace of the floats to attach the floats rigging. I also installed the eyelets for the float rigging.

Got the floats rigged using the ring on the center brace. If I anything I think the jump ring diameter should be less and the gauge a little less; other than that I really like the look. I also added the tachometer and wiring. I’m seeing the end. Thank you

My Mother's side of the family is Danish, so I love the markings. I saw a paper card version in Danish markings I may have to try.
Yours id coming along great and I am enjoying the updates. Model on.
