If the GB has been extended until Sept. 30, then I guess I should add the Gouf Flight Type I got not too long ago, if that's okay.

Bsyamato,

If you could extend the GB deadline, that would be great!

I just finished a big project at work and my taxes are finally done, so I will have some time to work on my models.
