I think so. Not so much as to be overdone, but enough to show the wear and aging. Korea was a very harsh environment on aircraft. The conditions there at airfields were quite austere.

I think that's a superb build - you've nailed the look of the aircraft from what I can see.

Thank you all!

Shes absolutely gorgeous!

Bruce I've been on a few sites where I eventually stopped participating due to the prevailing attitude of the sites. Hexperten and knowitalls with zero tact or social skills are running the place. If they spoke in the same manner in real life face to face with people as they do on those sites, they would get a well deserved knuckle sandwich. But from the safety of the internet, they and their cronies can rule their roost. No thanks. These places are about enjoyment, not urinary contests.

I appreciate research, knowledge, skill, and such as much as the next guy. But don't lord it over everybody. And expect everybody to want or try the same things.

Well said, Carlos. Bruce, we have always prided ourselves on being very inclusive and non-judgmental. We have had a few that became "keyboard bullies" and they were banned, warned, then banned. One, we even gave way too many chances to repent. This is a good group of folks.

When I am frustrated and feel nothing will work — and I am most likely ready just about to snap a delicate part in half — I remember that I know you all. You’re all Aces, in my book.

That's an interesting discussion here. If I haven't finished my Corsair and haven't shown it here, we would have missed that. So my Corsair fullfilled a mission ...
Always nice to read your thoughts. Thanks.

Ugh, about a month late to the show. But not late enough to say that I'm impressed by the outcome of this neat little bird.
I'm always in awe about the things you guys are able to do in the gentleman's scale. I pull my hat to you, sir!
