I been wanting to put a coat of gray on the uunderside but it has just been to humid down here in Tampa. So I just have to wait a bit.
Again thank you very much, I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Groovy    It's got a sort of "Dan Dare" look to it. 262 horizontal tail might work. But it's a flippin' good idea anyway    

[Eddie M.]

We're just glad yer hear. B) Like the song says," You can check out any time you like, but you can't never leave."  Looking forward to your progress.

I love this guy already!  I mean that in the manly styrene way, eh?

You have checked into the right site, Zip!

The usual indoc questions:

1. Are you actually an ex-pat Brit?
2. What's your favorite beer?
3. Do you like Twiglets ™?
4. Spats or T-Tails?
5. Phantom or TSR.2?
6. How long have you harbored animosity for Fate snubbing you so cruelly by denying you Canadian residence?  

[BlackOps]

Zip, glad ya joined in the fun   That is a great build you have going and a really good idea    

[Brian da Basher]

Welcome aboard, Zip! I really like what you're doing with the P-40/262. I can't wait to see what you come up with for the 262 fuse and the P-40 wings!

And remember, spats always enhance the look of any aircraft.
(although Mr Howling Mouse will tell you T-tails do...)

I love spats!
