Looks good.
I just like doing the smaller ones because they use less ink. They are more stable because it's absorbing less moisture. I live about 6 miles inland from the beach so the smaller planes don't warp as much as the larger ones that I've built. Pargon's F101 Voodo is in 1/72 but I think it's his design methods that keep the wings from sagging in the coastal weather. My DGA and Fiddler's Green ones, their wings sag and twist alot. Jefferey |

Thanks Jefferey, I couldn't agree with you more. Apart from humidity problem, storage is another. After a certain period of time, say 6 months to a year, you would usually throw it away (dust covered) or give it to a friend (provided it is still in good condition). In smaller scale, the planes can be stored in a clear box of manageable size.

Just to show you what I'm working on at the moment. Guess you'll know what plane it is? Perhaps Aaron may wish to comment on the marking in the last pic, is it an "F" or my ignorance of the true marking on that plane?

Hmm. It's supposed to be an F for California Department of Forestry. And it looked right when I built my version.

Guess I'll have to mirror print Page 9 to get it right. Suggest that you take a look at that page, P9 of the CAF version. Thanks.
