Good stuff. For the weathering, be very gentle with your approach. Start small and add a bit at a time til you're satisfied.

Awaiting the plan. If you add stains behind the vents, the stains are between the vents

EDIT: this one shows it a bit better

All planes are dirty on their undersides. Some less some more. KC-135 and E-3 were probably the cleanest I ever worked. B-52 were without a doubt the nastiest I ever worked.
