I find it strange that the canopy is molded separate and clear, yet the main fuse is clear also, along with other sprues that are not clear.

Looks great so far.  Are you going to leave any of it clear?  Cool little bird

Thanks,

John

Added seat belts and duffle bags before I glue the canopy on.

Got the cockpit done and painted,  Got the masking tape seat belts in.  Still have to add the luggage.

I've looked at that kit and wondered.  I like building general aviation aircraft.  I'll be watching your build.

Came across this little cuti at my LHS,   went in for Fine scale mag and this jumped off the shelf at me.   the wings/fuselage are molded in clear plastic.   I've had to add some bird shot and epoxy in the nose to prevent tail sitting.

Should be a nice easy build,  hence the name on the box.  add some seat belts and some HO scale luggage in the back window and wala!  Done.
