OK. I just realized that I screwed up with printing everything out. The cockpit interior is (roughly) 10% larger than the rest of the plane.
So, I need to start this whole build all over again.
Sorry folks!

I was going to say running along nicely, so you have to print another cockpit smaller, and a another ship bigger.
Just a feeble excuse to get two builds into one thread... "ha-ha!"

After conferring with @Revell-Fan about the files, there were a few mistakes found and resolved.
I will resume building shortly.

I'd rather believe RB is longing for me to visit him in the States and do all the fixing on location. Ah well. Since I am a cheap German I was a great deal faster and simply told him to cut out the cutout of the fuselage a bit bigger.
(Granted, the fitting issue was a BIG surprise because the files were not changed after release and we tested everything ad nauseum. I strongly believe it was a case of human error during printing because the regular parts come as PNG and the interior parts as PDF. We have now turned all pages into PDFs using Gimp to make sure that everything is printed at the proper size. At least this is what we hope for!

I still have the cockpit interior. So, I will start over with the construction of the plane, itself.
Ok. I have printed out the new templates. I will start the build over again. However, I will continue this build thread at the point that I stopped. So, for the most, nothing will change.
