Its was fun to build it.I
Question > why have you not opened the hatch windows?

Purely a minor gripe from me, but as you have the front windows open, I would have done the same with the hatch

Yes you are right there should be a window in it but I redesigned the hatch and I didnt try to fit windows in it.

When I build the UHU tie interceptor hatch it was verry hard to get the glass in place. Also with the next models it went wrong.

Thats why I didnt try it

Sometimes, on windows, I make a thin plastic sheet, shape as necessary, the sandwich it between two pieces of the hatch or cockpit to get a window in. Sometimes no windows just gives an appearance of a windows being there, it's just very clear. :)
