What a trial concerning the decals, Sandy!

Never mind, your SE5 is coming together nicely now and will be a striking scheme when completed.

Regards

Thanks, Guys

I'm determined to keep this moving forward, so most of the rigging is now on and touching up commenced.

I like the slimline SE5 nose (compared to 5a) and am happy with the way the carved exhausts etc have turned out.

 Just the upper roundel to go on (fingers crossed, after the tribulations with the under wing ones!)
Then weathering, final rigging and varnish coats, as well as wheels, prop and Lewis.
 
It might actually see the light of day!
