A quick correction on the servos. The flaps will have JR 8611's instead of the 4721's. With a project this large we'll spend the few extra $'s for a little stronger servo.

Plane is looking great John. Chop, Chop, Lets go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey John, Will you be machining the retracts for this project or farming that mechanical element out to others?

I wonder if there's some kind of exhaust out there that would really muffle the engine sound and create more of the signature drone the big 4 engine bombers had?
