Next task is to fit the upper wing - should be fun!

Flawless covering job, are you using the wet method with silkspan or is this the tissue supplied with the kit?

CD, super craftsmanship. Have you thought about the M Gun? What is the cost of 4 liters of petrol on the other side of the pond?

Hey thanks John. Do you mean the fuselage mounted Vickers? I realise it should be there, but as it's a tissue only finish I decided I wouldn't have been able to create a neat enough channel for my liking, so decided to omit it. As for the Lewis gun atop the upper wing, I have some ideas but will think more about it as the build progresses. A litre of petrol over here has just gone over the £1 mark for the first time. People are not happy, and there are rumours of more fuel blockades again, as there were in 2000. Barnstormer, thank you :-) This is neither silkspan nor the kit supplied tissue (which was white), but Japanese tissue I purchased separately from SAMS Models.

Our petrol in Canada is at an average of around $1.15 per litre, making it around $5.11 per gallon. The US is around the $3 per gallon average.

Thanks CD for the info. A pound is what....abot $3. I hope you mount a gun on the upper wing. A superb topping for a beauty!
