Not too bad at all really .... it's an old Peerless Kit. The suspension can be a little finicky.
Here's mine

Happy Modelling and God Bless Robert

Since it was an airshow, I wonder if that 40mm made any pilots nervous. Something about flying slow over AA doesn't sound relaxing.

Michael, my most humble appology to you. I miss read the first post and thought shermanfreak had done these. Therefore, my addressing my post to Robert! It's no wonder I have such trouble with building models, my eyes can't even read English that well anymore!

Sorry, again. And thanks for all the pictures.
