The bonnet is now completed.
The interior is made more parts, some of them are done as belt box, cockpit floor, air intake for the engine and interior painting.
New to the list are the fuel pump, joystick, seat, rudder pedals, compass holder and hole for tachometer.
Cheers
Martin

Up on the harnesses, the cockpit is now finished.
They are just painted. On the left half of the gas lever and magnet are mounted.
At the belt box is still the emty box glued, on the pedals the rudder ropes.
Cheers
Martin

Great looking cockpit, Martin. The brass bezels and gauges really look nice!

She's shaping up to be quite a little gem, Martin.  Maybe your best yet.
Cheers,

The belts are attached.
The fuselage together and glued the bottom surface with the body part.
Then plastered all front and made a hole for the engine.
Sanded once more the hood inside.
For the driving force behind the push rods 0.3mm holes drilled, sanded lightly midsection in the cylinder area, truncated cylinder in 5,4mm and glued to the housing part. Then primed.
Etched glued to the fuselage and left Elevator.
Cheers
Martin

You are moving along very nicely Martin, I'm interested to see how the engine will look once completed and painted.
