Can almost smell the engine oil & that particularly robust tobacco smell that infuses into the cockpit from the uniforms of the pilots.

Update,  finling sanding, finling sanding. Had to replace the rear wheel, it kept breaking, I'm already thinking about getting to buy the new Border Kit.

That tail wheel does look a tad fragile, but you did a good fix for it.  :thumbsup:

Landing gear never seem to be on Revell's 'Best Engineered' list, they always try and make them TOO scale, forgetting that it's plastic the kits are made from, and not metal.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
