Canceled bottom air brakes (Astir have only upper), ailerons cuted and shifted.

Prepared wheel bay, some changes in cocpit

Something goes really wrong...
![Album image #6 Album image #6](/albums/img/2/1/3/863213-37811-74-720.jpg)
... but using filler and extra plastic it was easy to correct.

![Album image #8 Album image #8](/albums/img/2/1/5/863215-37811-91-720.jpg)
After few layers of Surfacer (first was... black 🙂 )
![Album image #9 Album image #9](/albums/img/1/7/8/864178-37811-22-720.jpg)
Even filled instrument panel is too big to close the canopy 🙁
![Album image #10 Album image #10](/albums/img/1/7/9/864179-37811-76-720.jpg)
The canopy had to wide frame - I removed it.

Taking a late front row seat... I actually built one of these a year ago in only a few days, but I have another one in the stash to be built with a bit more care, using the Brengun cockpit. Sanding off the cockpit frame was a great idea - ballsy, but great! 🙂

Thomas - I know about Bergun's cockpit but... I find a kind of pleasure to scratch something myself. It's not so sophisticated like resin ones but for me are OK.

The airbrakes turned out really nice! I forgot to ask, did you find it difficult to cut out the holes in the wings?
