Very nice!!  But what is that wooden club-looking thing where the low-pressure compressor inlet should be???      

It took me a bit to figure out what you meant, AD and then it dawned on me...
"Oh, he means the propellor!!!

You'll have to do a Coanda next to keep him happy.

Nice one again Brian! How's that Gator Glue? I've heard it's the hot ticket for photo-etch too, having trouble finding any though.

I've tried Elmer's School Glue and Krazy Glue (CA) for attaching wire rigging, but nothing beats Gator Glue as far as I'm concerned. It's good for attaching canopies and windscreens too. I find it dries faster and gives a more solid bond than white glue and also dries clear. As it doesn't set immediately like CA, you've got a little wiggle room which is nice when trying to shoehorn in that last bit of rigging.

Order with confidence! I had mine within five days of placing my order and he accepts Pay Pal!

Another thing I forgot to mention is that you can paint over it with acrylics with no problem. It sets in minutes and dries completely within a couple of hours.

Sounds like an excellent product. Thanks for the tip

Great one!!!

I like that camo scheme, and the pointy thingy on the propeller. The mating of engine and fuselage is an eye catcher!!!

And the markings clearly grabbed the attention of my modeling companions

Not being overly familair with the original Albatross, all I can say is that it looks right, which is quite an accomplihment with what you've done to it. Well done!
