A frickin' modern art masterpiece!!! You really showed 'em how it's done with THAT build mister.

That's such a crazy scheme! I'm sure it was difficult to keep your focus when laying it out but it looks impressively chaotic.

I have a Mig-29 in the stash with that crazy digicamo paint. I am scared to death to do it. Man that is one fantastic piece of work. Well done.

Wow! My eyes hurt! That is one fabulous looking build! Even if it does strain the eyes

I also hope for the best at Columbus and Louisville! That sure is a contender!
Pack it upside down over foam or other cushion material; that is how I transport my planes. Greatly reduces that chance of landing gear failure.

Now that’s some out of the box thinking. Also, should prevent the top box flaps from busting off the canopy when someone accidentally pushes on them during transport
