Yes, Think when you count all the ribs in the fixed ammo chutes and on the floorboards, and add them to the ribwork on the fuselage sides and bulkheads, I have at leat doubled the kit parts count :shock:

I'm gonna be doing something similar to an MV-22 Osprey I plan on building soon.

This week I should have more progress work to photograph and keep you guys (and girls) entertained. I have been having my visions at night about how to tackle the last speed bump on the interior here...

No, but most of the work will be visible from one angle or another thru open hatches, the canopy, windows, etc.. Especially under the infamous IPMS penlights...

OK, I am back to work on this one. My last bit of improvistation for the interior- the waist gun ammo cans. Last night I built them and their rack up. I still need to add their mounting brackets, but that is an few simple pieces, and teh flex chutes leading to the waist guns. Almost ready to start painting and get the interior all together.
