Making some good progress.
Planes are done except for the flat coat that will blend and mute the colours a bit. Boy those things are little kits all to themselves.

Deck have had base coat first weathering coat and detail painting and depth/highlight coat done.

Have some sub assembly's done as well but they are boring at this point.

OK so my son's boss has a model I made for him and he asked me how to fix something.

You should be able to tell why these guys are about to have a really bad day!

The AOA sensor on the nose is also bent. Hope they weren't relying on that to be accurate.

I tried to fix my IFR probe but it's so damn delicate! I've preserved the part until I can figure out a good way to rescue it. @Tcoat's work is high art. I am honoured for his gift.

Mrs. Ultra's peanut butter cookies are high art too.

That is what I noticed, didn't see the hook, and was going to look it up to see if it was supposed to be bent, but I'm distracted doing my taxes today.
