absolutly amazing

It is only the intellect that keeps me sane; perhaps this makes me overvalue intellect against feeling

first of all I could almost hear the engine warming up. That bird is about as real as it can get! I nearly bought that kit yesterday afternoon, but had a slight reservation about the turret up front. Did they give you the option of not using it? Lastly, the next time you take that bird up can I go for a ride?

Doubt that Im the only one who would love to see some more shots of this, er, model. So how about it? I've drooled all over these already. Multiple times!

Love those early forward raked skids despite the havoc they caused coupled with Density air and underpowered engines. Anyone for a bunny hop?

All I can say is Outstanding. A perfect model. I hope mine comes out 1/10th as good as yours does. I also agree that belongs in a muesum.

Did you custom make the intake screens? I have the screens for the engine panels but do not believe my photo etch kits included intake screens. I will have to look.

Great job Andy
