This kit I keep in my collection for some 15 years and I have finally make up my mind to start slow build on this subject. Kit is until this stage get into the shape and this is done in just half of hour, thanks to the very fast liquid cement which I use for this. To be honest I have no idea how much is this kit correct but I have no plan to measure it or compare with material from literature- I simply built it and enjoy in this build

Here it is- model is progressed much and it goes more or less smooth. Only minor problem was fitting of the lower fuselage with the wing section but this is solved somehow... model filler
