I would send you dirt from Edwards AFB, Bud! Looks like you knocked the Convair outta the ballpark! Home run! I’m kinda glad you designed multiple sizes of the wing logos, the paper cutout looks a smidge large to me. Thoughts? Echo back.

I saw this. Immediately thought of you.

Thanks blacksheep and Bruce.
It is good to read such nice words. Sometimes when you are focussed to your work you see things differently. Then it is a nice gift that some people thousands of miles away are really interested.

Bruce, I pulled down the highway close to Edwards Air Base. But when I prepared the base for my Convair the memories were almost gone. So it is great to know that matched it.
The picture you postedis really amazing. Wow.
The decals arrived today and I am gonna store some pics here soon.
Did also some CAD I wanna show u. TR3B and XF-11 parts...

There is just something about Edwards AFB and those X-planes... :hmm:
