Hi M.I.B.

That certainly looks like an interesting sub there, keep the pics coming.

I do remember the TV Series U.F.O. as a kid and was lucky enough to have the Dinky Version of the Shado Mobile too.

Ps..Thanks for posting up the larger Pics too, I must admit I was struggling with the first ones.

Regards........Mark.

Looking good there Mick I must admit, I hope the conversion to R/C works out well too, will certainly be a different model to have at the pond.

Regards......Mark.

Looking good!

I will certainly follow this project with great interest as I am a big fan of Gerry Anderson shows and UFO in particular.

Keep the pictures coming, and how about a write up as well as you progress?

Is Skydiver still available as a kit?

ps. One little comment, not really a criticism, but the nose on Sky 1 looks a little long. Can it be shortened?
