Just getting caught up on this build, Siskin, and I'm completely blown away by what a magnificent model you've got going here!  I've got this kit and will be using your build as a guide when I build mine. 
Cheers,
Bud

Thank you, my friends, I am afraid, your assessment is too good for my model))) But we wait for the final. For now we are working with braces.

Looking very impressive Siskin, I'm looking forward to seeing the Pulpit added to the front of the aircraft, a most unusual design but quite an attractive aeroplane.
