Very nice indeedy! I have to try my hand at a more modern aircraft, I've been so busy building WWII aircraft for the last year and a half since starting modeling.

Keep having fun!

Cheers,

Martin :)

She turned out fantasticYes  Great work on the cockpit!  Is it AM or OOB?  Looks like OOB but the seats might be AM?  Or at least you added seatbelts.  Anyway, if I have to ask it means you did a really good job on it!

Thank you.  You guessed  right, seats were the only aftermarket parts added.  They're Aires.  Everything else in the office was oob.
