Brian,
You get better and better with each build.  Good luck in the GB.
Can't wait to see what you do in the LSR GB (you are doing something for it, right?)

B'd'B may soon start meaning Brian d'Bayleen after this build.   I'm still completely gobsmacked over this one and it takes a lot to gobsmack me anymore.

Ever feel like you were born a few decades too late, Brian?  You sure have a natural feel for nostalgic aircraft!
