  Rigging done! Those that went "ping"at the inappropriate time will be left till the patience level reaches an acceptable level.
  Undercarriage, gun , windscreen attached.

  This just leaves the pitot. I've made one but I'm not happy with it.

  It has been finished to represent the aircraft flown by CAPT. Gordon C Wilson. 68 SQN RFC ( 2 SQN Australian Flying Corps) December 1917.
  He was the Fight commander of "B"Flight hence the numeral "1".
  I will be leaving off the flight commander pennants and Aldis sight.

  Nearly done.

Thank you Tom and Paul.

Just minor fiddley bits to be done when time permits. Then a final peruse by the quality assurance officer ( me) and she'
  done.
Doing the rigging was a good exercise.
