Thanks, Mike!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

I like them too but they just don't have the range that Alclad does.

Got the landing gear mostly assembled. Had to cut some of the detail in the nose gear bay away so that the gear leg would sit correctly.
