I can't wait to see the shape this is going to take in the end, Eddie. The mammoth engine sure could take this beast to altitude for an ASAT release.

Eddie,

This is has got to be the best looking cockpit I have seen from your workbench yet.

Thanks Sauragnmon, Rafael and Jeffry!  :cheers:

Jeffry, thank you for the kudos. To me, Future does wonders for a glass cockpit. I must be honest, it didn't turn out as well as I hoped because of my inability to get the light gray for the main color of the panel, but couldn't do it without mucking up the gauge faces. What is seen in those photos is a third try effort. I'm glad you enjoy it. :mellow:

Thank you very much. I'd point them out, but then I would sound like a perfectionist and anyone who's waited two years to see one of my projects get finished, knows I'm not. ;D

Bits and piece from several sources are finding their way into this project. Here are some parts that once belonged to a 1/200 DC-10 and a 1/32 F-22. The intake on the underside would be for the APU and aux cooling.;) :D ;D

I love the fact that all that stuff looks like it belongs there  :thumbsup: Gonna be a real arse kicker this one is!

Coming along just excellently and...wait, someone makes a 1/32 F-22?
