Looking good.
Always amazed at how short the wingspan is on the Orion compared to the fuselage length.
Was lucky enough to see a German Navy Orion at RAF Cosford airshow this summer and it put on a decent display. Very quiet too, which explains why the engines are on upside down!

Gotta keep mixing things up Russ, and this is for one of my best friends (almost 40 years now) who is being posted to Maryland USA in November, to work logistics on the EA-18G "Growler" for 3 years. I will need to work on some secure packaging for this to make the journey in one piece!

Cheers, D


Lots of bubble wrap

Building up nicely
