Had to look that one up. Looks like the gear my dentist was wearing when I went last week! Sounded like I was visiting with Darth Vader as well. :ph34r:

There is no forgetting, the airline will provide one if a passenger shows up without it. It must be worn during the flight.

I had to double check which build I was in.  That dash panel resembles something out of a fighter cockpit.

It sure doesn't resemble the inside of any combat vehicle I was ever in. 

Rye Field produces models loaded with details.

That dash reminds me of the last winnebago I was in....

I can do better than that in a few days...I ordered the Abrams Tusk kit and it's on the way, should be here next week. Does not include the interior with the version I ordered.

This one?

I think your going to like it.....

I could have picked up the full interior version, but I passed on it as well...

 

The tracks alone look to be several hundred parts... (probably an exaggeration, but they do look like that much)

Adding pieces to finish out the cabin interior floor. 

I ordered a set of resin radio components that fit in the center racks (between the seats) from a vendor in Taiwan over a month ago. Unfortunately, they have not arrived and may be lost in the mail. I shall continue with construction regardless, but wish the pieces had arrived to further enhance the cockpit.

Jedi mind tricks.

 

This Ryefield kit is incredibly detailed but…they do not include the radio gear that is mounted inside the cabin between the seats. I did not realize there was a Ryefield aftermarket radio set for it until after I assembled the interior. Next I will try to install it after-the-fact. Will require some disassembly and reassembly.
