You are far too kind, Bo. Jewels are those bits, you add to your Albie...

Hello Prez:

Like Bo, I like your leather work; very convincing, the wicker is really nice.  The instrument panel is indeed a jewel as is the wireless.  I don't see the details to be corrected, it all looks great.  Looking forward to more.

Best

Thanks, Martin and Mark.

I have finished the cockpit, it is now ready to be buried in the fuselage








Provisionally dry-fitted to the fuselage halves.





Now for the Puma engine!

You have done a splendid job with the interior Przemol, the colours your have used are very realistic and the leather is extremely convincing, well done so far.

Spectacular job on the interior, Prez!  Your usual brilliant work.
Cheers,

Prze, you keep raising the bar.  It's such a shame to have to hide some of that amazing
detail.  I'm thankful at least quite a bit is able to be seen through the openings.  I look
forward to more of your wonderful work on the DH.9.

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Prez,
Stunning work to say the least! Your work is not only BEAUTIFUL but very clean! I need to work on that part on my next builds  8)

I've been hoping that someone would do an 'Under Construction' on one of these, the DH9 is one of my faves. Who better than you Prez? Even by your high standards this is absolutely sensational!
Keep up the good work,
Tony.

Amazing work and so beautifully done. As Des has written the wood and leather interiors are so realistic that they could easily be mistaken for the real thing. If the engine is nearly as good as this (and I know that it will be), then this will be another winner from you.

That is sooo pleasant to read all your overly kind comments. Thank you, everybody.

... If the engine is nearly as good as this (and I know that it will be), then this will be another winner from you.
That remains to be seen. But your faith in me is very encouraging, lone modeller. ;)
 I have just started removing the engine bits from sprues and cleaning them. First dry fitting attempts reveal usual WNW standard. And from the photos it seems there will be not too much to add, just electric wires and some plumbing (after all I am not Bo - he would gladly substitute most of the bits I take as just fine). The rest will be well covered by the panels... Again, the photos will come when I have anything painted and assembled.
