A little bit of progress from last night and tonight.

Bang seat assembled and painted. Kinetic color call out were odd. I followed the same color call out in the Tamiya
F-16 Aggressor Viper instruction guide.

Top halves of fuselage glued together and cockpit tub installed. Bang seat don't go in until later in the build.

Main strut wheel well assembled and ready for paint.

I still have three more Kinetic Viper kits in my stash. All three of them will be Belgian Commemorative schemes. Bought aftermarket sheets years ago. Pretty cool scheme but all are alike yet different tail art for each.

This kit I have the luxury to skip 3 or 5 steps because they're for the two seater Viper. :lashed:

I’m curious to see where this goes. Luke is just up the ways a bit from here… although the F-16 training program there is not what it was like when I moved here 6+ years ago… I wish that they still did F-15 training here too… :hmm:
