If I had a dime for every modeller that said this would be a good idea I would have a huge pile of dimes. You are the first to ever accomplish this monumental task. Truely excellent work Dwayne. Now where is the airfield base that you will display it on?

Thanks everyone, your support is helping me to see this through. The Aeroworks crew would like to thank you all too but it seems they're up to their usual mischief!
Stephen,
I may have to wait till one of my kids decides to try out their own wings and free up some space before I consider reconstructing Boistrancourt but it will be worth the wait.

Aeroscalites,
Thank you all for your more than kind words. It is a pleasure to share with you all as you have been most gracious with your advise and encouragement. Your feedback has been a key factor in seeing me through this project, believe me when I say that life has thrown me quite a few curveballs along the way and I could always count on your encouragement to help lift me up when I needed it. Two more to go.
Thanks Again,
Dwayne
