Several years ago, I build a BRTC25 Thunder Fighter in BSG livery in remembrance of my mother (who passed away in 2008). She was a HUGE fan of both BSG and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century). So, I have decided to rebuild that model again (as well as build a launch bay diorama around it).
I started with the cockpit interior

The cockpit tub is complete.

This is the joystick mount/lower sensor unit.
