| Thanks guys. Am a bit stuck in the cockpit tube at the moment, haven't quite made up my mind which way to tackle it and I'm not to bright today with a nasty head cold and not much sleep last nigh. Quote:

| Had a little spurt of activity over the past week prior to joining a group build. Spent most of today fiddling with resin ejector seats (all four of them) hope to post pics tomorrow.

| Nice work old boy! The resin seats have got to better than the inaccurate lumps in the kit!! Going to do some major surgery on mine when I get around to that build.

| Worked on the Martin Baker seats for the last couple of days, now completed and have shown Airfix kit seat for comparison. Thank goodness for resin seat. The build is now on temporary hold while is direct my energies to the Heavy Hitters build.

| Very nice work Vic. The kit seats are really a poor representation, don't know where Airfix got the shape from! On my kit's instruction sheet, there's a 'Thank You' note to RAF Leeming for their help in the production of the kit. I presume Airfix can only mean with the Squadron markings, as the entire cockpit is inaccurate!!
