The fit of the canopy caused some consternation as it wasn’t great and I was quite worried about damaging it during the filling/sanding /re-scribing process but I think I got away with it. Things would have been easier if I had left the main canopy in the open position but I really didn’t think the level of detail of both the cockpit interior and the ejection seat was good enough for this option. I also prefer the sleeker look of this aircraft with the canopy in the closed position and the blue stripes work better with the canopy closed.

Great build and write up Dave. I now know I need the ECS pipes as well, I have got replacement Eduard zoom for the cockpit and resin exhaust’s for when I build mine.
