Looks good Martin: Aircraft that size are a bear to do to make them look good and yours look pretty darned good.

Thanks. In my zeal to finish them, I forgot to paint the glare shields on the Skyraiders and the Tracer, or the nose cones on the jets. I realized right after I had glued them all to the deck. :doh_1:
