I'm going with the kit cockpit.

The aftermarket kit has some fit issues that while sovable, I chose not to.

Yah, it's very nice.

 

I missed the Cockpit decals when I started the build, so I hand painted them. Then I found the decals. They set nicely over the raised detals with Micro sol/set.

 

The main gear/speed brake wells fit perfectly in the fuselage. Very well engineered.

 

Everything is sealed up.

 

 

And the seams are being worked on.
