Must agree

Very slick work and a beaut of an AC

Very early 50's space flick

they were cheaper when the £ to $ rate was better...

Well done! Have you used two shades of paint on the fuselage? The effect is so subtle it could be a trick of the light. I really like that.

Cheers chaps , actually there are four shades of Alclad on her, two custom tones, blown over to blend sharp demarcation lines.
Van have a word with Ali , I'm sure he'll send you a new ressy canopy if you want to replace one ...

Thanks all,

Andy
