Thanks for the comments on the Skycrane.

It's pretty cold here too, although warmer than it has been. It's hovering just below freezing right now, but the roads are covered in snow after a big dump today. Made driving today a bit 'interesting'Shock [:O]

Kenny, it is complete now, so you can post it as such. Interestingly I watched Independance Day last night and what should show up but a Skycrane! It was the one with the flashing lights that was shot down just as the aliens started attacking.

Paul, nice completion. Thumbs Up [tup]  I love the Skycrane, it's such a goofy looking bird.
