Thank you gentlemen. Someday I'll get the doors right. They were better, honest, but shifted when installing main wing assy.

You're not alone......I used to spend hours trying to get the gear doors to fair in with the under fuselage on scale 1:1 planes a real PITA sometimes. Loving this one in "Green" might have to give one a go after I attempt a "Shiny" one first.

Thanks gents. The plan was for an overflight but I'm still working on how to accomplish it. There are no "chuckers" available on this side of the pond.

A great result Paul. I've said this before, and you build demonstrates my problem. If I was a successful pilot, I don't think I would advertise how many enemy aircraft I had shot down. I can't help thinking that would make me a bit of a target !

 

[Mini Me]

It pays to advertise!

That was very quick Paul! And had turned out very nicely indeed too!

Very well done.

[Jim R]

That has turned out really well.

Couldn't find a chucker, but managed to fake it.

Great stuff…..Angels on their shoulders…..

 

[Neil Merryweather]

lovely job, Paul

 

[minitnkr]

Thanks guys. A couple more. Do I leave them here or someplace else?

 

[Mini Me]

Nice shots Paul......was hoping to see some "Tracer" rds........570 hasn't been able to do that trick yet....you coulda had a "First"

Who needs a chucker, great pics

 

[minitnkr]

Thank you gentlemen.
Rick, that was my first idea, but then I'd have to model the strikes and that was too much work for six guns.

 

[Jim R]

Those photos are really effective.
