Mark, that means a lot to me! Thank you.

You're welcome. Your work has me considering getting one of those for myself.

I was thinking the same thing - it's a great looking build and aircraft.

If you do, would not mess much with the interior. The windows are so bad, you can't see any detail. Not a high parts count, either.
