Build Phase 1
Boxed and ready to go
Not many parts, lots had snapped off the sprue in the sealed box from 30 years of handling
The plastic is very translucent
Fitting the cockpit bulkhead and rear wheel
Rear wheel and catch hook assembly, these are supposed to be movable but I've glued in place as the catch hook kept falling out and the rear wheel pivot was loose
Had slight trouble with keeping the two halves of fuselage together, nothing some tape cant fix
As with the rear wheel I've glued to front wheels in position for the same reason
The wings again proved hard to line up, the tops were both slightly warped. Again, nothing tape cant fix

Album info
I spent an hour or so building up the bulk of this model, had some trouble with fixing the wings as they're a really odd shape and one of the fixings snapped off. More to come.
