    Pulled this shelf queen down and finished it this afternoon, quick Flory wash and then added the antenna.

            Only 4 left and it'll be clear.........but i'm feared something bad happens if it is ever cleared.

                  Cracking job.
                  You're getting a liking for that Flory stuff eh!!.....
                  It does give a great finish, when applied correctly of course,and you certainly seem to have got that sorted

                            That's a great looking build you've created there Karl. Considering it's a carrier aircraft you might think those wheels should be further apart, however, Eric 'Winkle' Brown speaks very highly of the Wildcat, so I guess, it just works.
