How did you like the build? Any problems?

Hi Dave, the build was relaxed. I particularly liked the nicely detailed cockpit. Was tempted to saw the canopy open, but refrained. I built an Airfix kit of this decades ago, so I wanted to get it right now. Of course you need some putty for the wing/fuselage joint, but the result was very satisfactory.
