                        This was done for the Airfix GB now going forth.  It's done in the scheme of the one I flew for a time.  The cabin windows are clear epoxy, decals were made with a Dell 1250C color laser printer, and Bare Metal Foil replicates the weeping wing surface deicing system.  It's not perfect, but then neither was the real one, but as I do the real one I forgive it it's faults and will remember it fondly.

                        John, that's one of the most wonderful comments on both the model and the original I've ever heard!

                        Regret I never saw the latter, but the model looks superb! Really a fine project. YesYesYes
