Thanks guys, just finished this one. Pics up in a bit, hopefully the weather will dry up a bit so I can do them outside. Time to concentrate on the Cessna O-2A now

Have no evidence this aircraft ever had the door gun mount fitted but wanted it in anyway, so there :ha:

Thanks for looking and thanks to our GBL's for a great GB
