Hehe Thanks Holly, first challange was to free the cockpit frame from the fueslage, as its a single molding..

Augie
OK, so.. work so far..

Removed molded seat.. and rebuilt the cockpit.
Removed the canopy from the body
Fitted mesh intake filters (from tights)
sorted replacement seat.. and nose gear..

Hello Augie 🙂

Very nice camo, i think that is a very happy color combination! Very eye catcher and original too. I like it.

Hi Augie,
it is always very impressive to see your amazing results here on scalemates. You are really exceptionally!
A girl who builts so well and so consequently like a maniac!
The camo is a great choice and make this outstanding frisbee very attractive!
Well done and a clean built. Only the canopy is a bit thick in front, but it`s only a minor point!
Thx for sharing
Greetz

Wilfried Bogaerts
No wing fold ?? Strange ... ohoh now I noticed, the tailfins crooked inwards before the glue had fully cured ! Ya think ya can still fix it ? 😉 Maybe leave it as is, it really looks neat !
15 August 2012, 20:28
Augie

@Dirk yeah its a bit thick, going to be thining it down while i sort the airbrakes

Well my dear, very good! Its raining a lot so i can model! But as soon as sun appears i´m out to get a sunburn (sarcasm, sarcasm, sarcasm...) I love the look of your F-19, you brought a lot of childhood rememberings back! THX!😢
