Very cool Lyle - thanks for posting. I watched all 3. I wasn't expecting a water landing AND takeoff. Sure looks like a nicely restored bird.

There are a few places the decals did not behave or play nice, but it will be okay. What i am most happy with on this build is 1) I was able to finish a bi-plane, 2) canopy masking held and 3) brush painted the fuselage, upper wing and red chevron.

The kit had some flash, but the most irritating were the mould seams on almost every part. Got what I could and another one is in the books.
