Attachment of float struts to fuselage a pain in the arse. Managed to eventually get it right then near the end knocked it off a shelf and had to redo one side. Also the last kit I was working on prior to my marriage ending, so a bit of a cursed kit! Still, nearly done now (8/1/20) so will be glad to finish it!

Hi David, it's a pretty good kit, the main weak point being how the struts for the floats attach to the fuselage. What I did was drill holes and add plastic rods to make the joints stronger.
It's a simple kit though so if you can get it for not too much money, it's worth getting I think. I'm nearly finished it now and I think it's looking good
