Matti ThomaesNice build, interesting subject. Never even heard of this smal flying boat. Seems very smal to be boasting six engines.

Desert MarlinThis project will have both pilots on the intercom and watching the engine startup process. That is why the same type figure is used in both cockpits. They both monitor the engine to ensure that the EGT and RPM is increasing appropriately. Each has their hand on the control stick to be able to open their MIC as they confirm everything is normal at start. The plan is to have the aircraft loaded with a Nuke (Apache Cruise Missile?). Seems appropriate to me for the days we live in now...

TreehuggerMaybe go for resin seats as well?
Seems like kit plastic never can compete with resin seats. 🙂
Though, I no longer crave for resin interior for the cockpit because of the work, but seats are ok.

Desert MarlinI'll paint these up and see if I can tolerate them. If they are too bland, I have time to change my mind! Thanks for the idea!

Desert MarlinGreat video of the weapon that goes with this version of the Mirage 2000N

Desert MarlinAs I have begun work on this kit, I am yet again struck by the lack of information in the variations and options provided in the kit. For example, the tail tip is not called out that applies to the 2000N version. While the nose of the 2000D is provided in the kit, it has to be modified to make it correct for the 2000N. Oh bother…

Desert MarlinSelected "most appropriate" tail tip and mounted the correct nose to fuselage.

Desert MarlinOkay, now I'm excited to get some paint on this cockpit!!! ResKit, you guys have done some great work with your 3D Resin Printing!

TreehuggerOh, did you fiddle with the nose part to make it match the N version, or did you have to buy aftermarket nose for the N version? I have this kit in my stash, but haven't really looked any it yet.
28 August, 05:43
Desert MarlinI'm using the D nose but converting it to an N version. I'm also closing the "sucker doors" on the inlets to represent an engine that is not yet started... I'm assuming initial hydraulic power is applied from the APU and auxiliary hydraulic pumps have brought the gear door up. I'm going to close the speed breaks for pre-engine start configuration...

Eric ThorntonLooks like BAM has some corrected noses still need the N one. Maybe reach out to him. I could use the corrected nose for this kit also. The Reskit stuff looks amazing.

Desert MarlinThanks for the heads up! The BAM nose looks fantastic! Sadly, the 2000N nose has a pitot tube and does not have the RDY antenna lines. It seems that much of the 2000N systems are somewhat earlier than the -5 systems. Everything I can find on the 2000N seems to be somewhat austere compared with the 2000-5. The ResKit cockpit is worth every penny!

Mr DLike it 😀👍
Nice when the pilot looks like he's actually doing something and engaged with the craft.
30 August, 15:22
Desert MarlinThanks. It's really sad to remove detail from the ejection seat, but that is the only way to get the pilot in place...
30 August, 22:47
Desert MarlinThe pilot is from REEDOAK. They have several different figures in various poses so the realism can be developed based on the aircraft scenario. This model is being build to represent events just prior to engine start.

Desert MarlinRemaining cockpit items:
1. Glass
2. Decals on seats
3. A little more weathering
4. Fix pilot's France Flag
5. Add WSO's Right shoulder patch
6. Check that I can get the canopy actuators in after everything is assembled...
7. Add HUD glass
1 September, 03:07
Desert MarlinThe glass and HUD went in great! I had to lightly sand the edge of the glass to get it to fit snugly into the ResKit frame between the front and back seats. I used 1000 grit and lightly buffed all the way around the edge. Fits perfectly!
3 September, 16:01
Desert MarlinCockpit is done! Looks like the ResKit cockpit tub fits perfectly! Lots of trimming to get the crew in the proper fit. Right now, I think it's ready for final checks before fuselage join. The forward control panel needs some sanding for fit, but it does work. I have left the seats, pilots and control panels loose until final fuselage join just to have "wiggle room" before closing. I was able to adjust the forward control stick to make it match the pilot's hand more closely. Just need to check a few more things and then join the fuselage halves!

Laurent VILLANUEVA- "HELLER ForEver"attention aux couleurs sur les notices kinetic etc , certaines sont fausses!
5 October, 11:29
Dave FlittonThe pilots look like they are impatiently waiting for you to finish the aircraft so that they can fly!
6 October, 00:31
Desert MarlinI got the canopy frames in the mail. The "detchord" in the forward canopy is perfect!
