That looks like a tidy kit, and a very attractive aircraft in real life too 👍
Best wishes

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

Never had an F20 in the stash, seeing this, maybe I should!

Thanks

Hi had a few hours working on the Airfix vampire t11 cockpit was fastened into the fuselage along with nose weight trunking and wheel well inset added followed by top wing

No hiccups so far but I have decided to add both inlet faces and wheel struts later in the build so that could come back to bite me
