I’ve flown in several 135s. Active, Reserve, and ANG, but I can’t say that I’ve flown on a KS ANG 135.... I look forward to seeing some markings on this one.

Looking good Doc! Not too long before you can call this one done!

This is definitely coming down to the end! Beautiful job on those engines.

Thanks! Thankfully enough, Bombshell Brew Paints came out with AMC Grey right as I was ready to paint.
