Thanks, John and Mike!
Here's the finished pictures with some fun in-flight shots. Cloned out a brass tube that fit in the tailpipe. No prop to spin on this one, more's the pity.

Looking great John. I am always impressed with your knowledge of the subjects you model. I on the other hand could probably talk intelligently about no more than 10 aircraft types. :bag:

Sorry, John, it only has scale range!

Thanks, Kyle, much appreciated.

Chris, it's just the result of imprinting on airplanes at a very young age. Just don't ask me anything about tanks or especially how to deal with women!
