T-6G Texan

Talk about a great build. Kits like this one are the reason I keep a full inventory of Academy models. The only downfall of this kit was the canopy. They provide a three piece canopy leading you to believe that you can easily build it opened up. That isn’t the case. The middle canopy is not thin enough to fit properly over the back piece. This leads to two options. Close it up and hide your hard work inside the cockpit, or make do like I did. I used a nontraditional method and crammed it on as far down as it would go without breaking it. It’s not accurate, but it’ll do. Other than that, thumbs up. Nothing special was done for this kit. It was a straight from the box build to give myself something to do while I procrastinated on the Fulcrum and Stuka kits.
