Have got the wing halves together after giving the wheel bays a splash of paint and awaiting them to set fully before cleaning the joints up.Got some of the cockpit parts together and once set gave them a coat of grey primer together with the blanking plate for the jetpipes.

Looking good Al, well done.
I was going to say "onwards and upwards" with the rest of the build, but being the Lightning it would have to go straight up!!

Have assembled the twin jetpipes and painted the bullet fairing before installing the latter inside the intake trunking. This was then fitted into the front fuselage and the jetpipe assembly added to the rear. Al Spal attached the following image(s):
