Very nice! I'll have to get one for my stash and build it as NZ4115 once MOTAT's done with it. Any issues wih the kit, or things to look out for when building a kiwi one?
Also, way cool camo and roundels on the Mk.III!

The base kit absolutely superb and comes with a really detailed instruction booklet. Some of the brass details were a bit fiddly, and a lot of the interior detail is never seen, but definitely the way to go. For the NZ version there were lots of little detail changes in addition to the obvious engines, turrets and beam gun windows - for example the Yagi antenna on the nose, Dual ADF fairings and dual pitot masts. The kit comes with the under wing radomes - a close inspection of the moulded parts shows sections that have been have been given provision for a Mark 5 in the future, but like the Italeri Hudson Mk II variant, dont hold your breath! I have the moulds for the engines if you do want to mod a MR5!

Nice work on the model. According to my father's logbook, he crewed 4107 through-out his entire time in NZ & Fiji (1959 to 1964).
The only other one that spanned the lot was 4116.
