Very nice build and great presentation! Hats off for tackling this kit. I had it in my stash and gave it away, as its age and quality of the plastic scared me...

The kit went together very well, not too much filler needed and it looks fairly accurate. Typical old Airfix of course, but not a bad kit really.

Very nice work and presentation 👍
I like modelmaking with a touch of history. May I ask if you have a personal story behind this topic?
Cheers, Christian

The photo is of my brother in law's cousin who served two tours of duty in WW2 and flew in that Mosquito for Operational Training with RAF 157 NF Squadron. I built the model for my brother in law who has it in his home now.

I also built this kit for our project "Nachtjagd" (You find it under my Projects) and i agree with you, for its age it fits very well. 😉

Except for the "Airfix" canopy, the kit looks very true to scale. I'll take a look at yours after work today.
