This project is slowly moving towards the end - yesterday I worked on tiny bits & pieces, a bit of cabling, and now I'm scratchbuilding fuselage support trestle. There's only propeller and floats waiting for attachment... Hope to finish by tonight 🙂

That was quick! I have this same kit waiting in my stash. Any problems?

Few problems, but nothing major😉
- Engine has to be converted from Mercedes to Benz,
- space between wings for fuselage is too narrow so I had to widen it by filing and sanding,
- lozenge decals are too narrow, fuselage crosses are too big
- horizontal strut in float-support is missing, has to be scratchbuilt
I would suggest using of Windsock Datafile No.55 and WnWs instructions - lots of good reference pictures there...
