Not seen so often as a built-up kit. Well done! 👍
That ship must have been the mother of propeller-induced vibration and a natural-born stick-shaker 😄

Thanks. Many of these sat around in tea boxes and.pizza boxes as complete airframes and collected assemblies literally for 15 - 20. Mike Lampros, a great guy from Virginia, knew what I had and would systematically hone in on pairs and say you got to finish X & Y. Mike passed away a few years ago at a young age. You re seeing these because Mike saw to it that he did.

Cheers to Mike! What would I do if I hadn't had a modelling mentor kicking me in the butt a few times. Never critical, always encouraging! Sounds like Mike!

I have a workbench for two. I can say that the 'fellow modeler mentor' concept works pretty well. Instant advice, exchange of best practice and lessons learnt, and the occasional kick in the butt to move on and not agonize over lack of detail, accuracy or ambiguous reference 😄
