Thanks for your nice comment, Alec. Tbh, she did cost me a lot of work and stamina to go through, this was my first larger project after a real long break. And now having her in the display case was worth all the effort 🙂
There are some more NASA planes to come, as you can see in my stash...

Really impressive result. A very unusual Viking. And well executed 👍

This is awesome.... Amazing work!!!
I live very close to NASA Glenn (which is in Cleveland, OH), in fact an ex of mine used to work there. So this has some connection to me. I think I will have to build one of these some day too.
Thanks for sharing!
