Beautiful!! Can't wait to build it. Gary, may I suggest you to include both types of engines (first and last) and also the possibility of making the short fuselage version by showing where to "cut" it when building? This would be a custom deluxe model!!!!

Gary, now that you are finishing the DC-8. please consider another private plane. The Piper Comanche. Believe it or not this most beautiful 4 place single engine Piper made from 1957 through 1964 has NEVER being modeled either in plastic or paper. Only one accurate balsa flying model by American Berkeley company in 1958 and a plastic ready to fly toy type by the Cox company in 1960. No other accurate Comanche has EVER being made at least as far as I know. I don't understand why because the Comanche was and still is extremely successful and way ahead of its time in design and performance. My friends: please support me if you like this airplane so Gary can provide us with a beautiful scale model to go together with the Apache, Skymaster and Tri-Pacer, and of course the Schreiber's Super Cub and Cessna 150.
