Good to see it in-flight too..

 

Thanx for the reply Jeroen, how is the Heinkel coming along?

Thanx for the comment Arnold,  with every new model i try to improve on my skills, sometimes it works and sometimes a model is moved to "the shelf of doom" until i get my motivation back to continue,

 

Greetz,
