                Well Chris you get an A+ from me for that result, she fought you all the way and you still tamed her, well done Sir.

                            A cracking build as I've said before Chris - the flickering engines are a nice touch. I like the fact you can fold the wings, that's very nicely done.

                            Well worth all the effort you put into it.

                              AN MANY THANKS Arnie yes im pleased you like how the build finished up an yes lighting the engines up i thought would be just that bit extra to make the model an pleased it came out ok but as ive said in the completed section she is not quite finished yet as ive forggoten to cut through the yank decal so i can open up the avionics bays both sides see i cant remember everything i do lol but will do them to day an then fit her you on the main veiwin shelf with the tomcat an have both of them lit up hopefully should look good
                              cheers sir
