Wow, superb Pete!!

 

[ozhawk40]

Thanks for all the kind words. I must admit, this one was a whole lot more work than anything I have done before, and I'm very happy the way it turned out. Made a few blues here and there, but nothing that couldn't be fixed. My biggest problem now is that it doesn't fit in my display case. Bugger! - I think I'm going to need something bigger . 8)

Cheers guys

Peter

Sounds like there are a few of us in the 'Rent a Hangar' search !!

 

[lesofprimus]

Im gonna start hitting garage/yard sales in the area in a hunt for a display case...

Ive got 3 good kits under my belt now, and after dusting off the other 2 today to get some comparison shots, I realize the dust is gonna kill em if I dont protect em....
