Thanks guys and I'm calling this one done.
I've corrected what I can on the kit whilst trying to stick to the 'Krap Kits' ethos. Some parts are missing but included in the instructions, some are on the sprue but not mentioned in the instructions.
Limited scratch building and decals from Kopro.
Over all a thoroughly enjoyable build. We should do it again sometime.
I'll take some pics in daylight tomorrow for the completed builds section.
And for those who like that sort of thing, here is a Moose mounting a Foxhound.

Re: OT gets Foxy
That is a brute of an aircraft for certain! Meritorious work!
Don't you just love it when you get spares for the box, that you know should really have been used?

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Still love a big Mig!
Excellent use of the big stick to beat it into shape.

Nicely finished mate, I like that orca decal, reminds me of the Tu-16 Badger I built:
