Many thanks guys, glad it is done, just need a nice sunny day now for the pics.

But what to do next, am thinking my SE 5a for the 56 Sqn flight line, I built one years back but now feel I can make good improvements over the finish of the last effort.

At last I remembered and found time to take my final pic of this beast. So before I post a finished thread, here's just a little peek at some of the other shots I took.

Beauty Vic. You've made an aerial Hippocroccofrog look (almost) like a princess - can you do it with the 'females' in my town ?!!!
