My offering is a bit embarrassing as I'm following in our GB footsteps and building the SAAF Anson trainer on Floats. A subject Rich has already covered in the trainer GB. It will be the weekend before I make my start. Still fooling around with photo shop enlarging drawings to 1;72nd scale.

Cheers

Been having problems uploading to photobucket the last few days. Here are links to high res images of the three pictures I used as reference.

Picture 3

I'll load up the side schematic and the various description and add them in later. Just wanted you to have something to plan from.

Finally made a start. With all the the excellent offerings I'll hold off the photos of the sprue shots. With the number of unfinished GB's on my bench I've decided to go for a OOB build of the fuselage.

Talk about being embarrased. I've finaly made a serious start on this one.   My aplogies to our GB leader.

For the conversion to a flaotplane trainer I began with blanking off the wheel wells with -lastic card then liberally applying green stuff.

Nice to see you cracking on, I'm in no position to complain - my build isn't exactly a long way along .
