Very nice build Shrike. Glad I was able to help out if only in a small way.

A very nicely-built model of a great airplane! It was fun to watch you build it and to deal with the issues that arose (or collapsed) in the process.
I hope you have another pre-1941 USAAC or USN airplane in the queue. Have you ever built a Shrike, Shrike? I'm thinking primarily of the A-8, YA-10, A-12 Shrikes, but the XA-14, A-18 Shrikes were very beautiful, too, and rather like the Kawasaki Ki-45 Toryu in appearance. The A-25 Shrike was also a great-looking airplane, but there are already a number of SB2Cs around. Don

An A-8 has been in the works for quite some time, but every time I think I have it down something comes up to distract me, or I learn more tricks, or I get new software. I've lost count of the times I've redesigned the spats<G>. Right now I have a version that's waiting for me to figure out the wing fillets
After that a YA-10 is a simple matter, and an A-12 wouldn't be much more. I suppose I should push ahead warts and all, eh?

A Shrike build would be fascinating, and maybe encourage more interwar AAC models?

I think I may actually have Will beat as ADD afflicted designer<G>

Okay. I won't make any more suggestions -- except to say that I hope the Breguet will be in Vichy colors. Leaving aside the nature of the Vichy regime, I love those red and yellow cowlings and tail stripes.
