Be sure to test fit the front instrumentpanel with the cockpittub and panel hood + HUD. You may have a small space at the bottom of the front panel where it meets the tub.

Thank everyone 🙂
@mark_d I'll try it tomorrow, didn't get that far yet. Still contemplating if I should buy a pilot figure with JHMCS or not.😅

Hmm, IP to comb looks fine to me? I mean I'm still missing the hud insert so theirs a gap, but other than that?

In my case I thought the top of the IP settled a little bit too low under the 'hood' / coaming(?) so when I sanded the ' hood' a bit at the underside, the IP sits now a little bit higher, logically in my case there is a small gap, but strange enough not between the sides of the IP and the tub. Anyway, if it looks fine it is fine 🙂.

Very interesting project - taking a seat. 👍

Looking good already. 👍
I can also understand the decaling choice - I used the same, and I think they really add to the look of the plane!

@Alexander
Thank you. I just happen to see the DXM Sheet by chance and though to myself, awsome, I like the look of that... A feew days later, Project Aces released the DLC for AC7, with the Viper Zero Super Kai and then the rest was "History" ^^'

@Robin
Thank you man!

Thank you very much guys. This one was a fun build and most likely I'll build another one of these. Maybe a B Variant? Who knows, right now I'll try to empty out my stash this year ^^'
