Wow - this beauty has moved along well since the last time I checked in - it looks absolutely awesome :bow::

I hope you figure out a way to sort that dust out - I think Scott's right about static build up but not sure how to tackle it :(

Likely static on those windows attracts the junk, what a pain.

Thanks guys!

Yeah, that's probably the reason why there is a buildup around the windows.

I will try to get the dust out somehow - plan B would be to tone the windows slightly dark but I'm not super-eager to do that ;)

So... let's not delay this further... :shifty:

I decided to pry off one of the bomb bay doors and hack my way into the back side of the cockpit :wtf: :crazy:

Image

I had to drill myself through the bomb compartment wall and the backpanel of the cockpit. :eeek:
Image

I drilled a hole large enough for the tube from the compressed air can with some extra room for the air to vent out again
Image

And guess what - it WORKXD :jd: :D
Image

Image

....Go figure :crazy: :dance: :lol:

:cheers2:
