1966 CH-47A Chinook Helicopters

The Eduard cargo compartment set is mainly PE stuff that needs folding and joining. (Instructions)

You probably have also noticed the padded fabric lining throughout the interior which is not represented realistically in the Trumpeter kit.
As Jakko suggested I would recommend using plastic rod and tape/paper to model the seats. It will mostly be the hangers/belts that will be seen through the windows
I have always thought it very disappointing that Trumpeter did such a poor job of the interior on the Chinooks, leaving out so much detail and providing a very diagrammatic representation of what they did include (like the ramp mechanicals etc.).

This is going to be my last post for a while. I'm waiting for more money to show up so I can buy the PE seats. (They're within my budget when I get my allowance.)

This is what I'm buying :: Seatbelts

I just installed windows. In my opinion they look like real windows. I used a pointy paintbrush and painted the window seal black.
EDIT:: the Lemon Yellow is ready to be peeled.... (Tamiya masking tape is ready to be peeled off...)
