Hi friends!

You do not know what to say, me neither! Thank you and thank you again ...
Remember, we are in the 1/8.

On the dashboard there is a magnificent piece: the compass.
An RAF, mine:







It will come in the middle of course:



Some parts:



As usual again some technical. Body draft:



Soldering jig:



And now, how to cut a 8 mm pane? You have to take a lathe, and  an independent four jaws chuck...
I know, I'm a lucky modeler...
 


Have a nice WE!

Dan.

Bonne soirée à tous!

Thank you very much Patrick, may be an other frenchy here?

Instrument panel more, but not the end...



"The other side of the moon":
By the way, I don't have anything on the wiring/plumbing to this side.
Help needed again! Thanks...



In situ:









Dan.

Amazing work, Dan. I have to remind myself that this is a scale model, not a full size replica.

Félicitations

Meilleurs vœux
Nigel

I wish I was an SE5 expert so I could offer some help with the back panel wiring... Sadly I'm not. I hope someone can give you some clues. And also:

Wow.
