This is what I can get done by working last night 7-10, and then today 10 hours. First time in many months I have not even checked my work e-mail.

Finished the planking, got the glass on, and cut the hatches.....

I am some what happy with this, but I wish it looked cleaner.....

It will look ok when primed and painted.......

Well it was a up and down day. Got the hatches done, and the plane flipped back over. Had to re-design my airlines placement for my brakes as the hung up on my first gear cycle with the actual main gears and destroyed a gear door. Oh well, that is already fixed and I am done for the weekend. That kid that looks like he just escaped from a Charles Manson compound is my drummer son, hard to believe he is going away in January to be in Army Airborne.

My work week looks like hell so I doubt I will have any free time.

Like the new wheels, much better than those yellow ones you had on it.

DAG,
Let see what would be a good word to describe this....
Awesome isn't good enough,

Bad ass - not good enough...

Spectactular - maybe...

Best ever quality in a scratch build I have ever seen (in 30 years of modeling).
Still doesn't describe how good this really is...
