Thanks. It's very far to perfection, to be honest, but i see a little improvement job after job... I must thank people as you for aid and support, no one can be better without friends.

Thanks again.

The SM 79 had a sistem that put both ailerons low when airplane was still on ground.

Remember to put your completed build into the Gallery. It should go in a museum but the gallery will do for now :mrgreen:

Great build!! More so considering the original kit!!!

I too love the open hatch above the bomb-bay - was this how bombs were loaded, in from above?

Not sure to be honest. I will do some research.

Fantastic finish mate. Something to be proud of. I'd definitely rate these as one of you best models.

A superb finish. I don't think anyone would think it started life as a humble Airfix SM 79. Very well done indeed!
