That's cool! Looks to be an early "A".

I've added the airbrakes and they sit closed pretty decently. Might take a little sanding later to fair them in completely.

I also got cockpit painted for the Skyhawk. Just like the Prowler, I need to paint the details and put it all together.

Man I got a lot accomplished on the Skyhawk. It's almost completely built up now and keep can't really go any further without some painting.

Wow! That was quick to get to this point! :wow:

Looks great!
