As I am enjoying your WIP, and as I am selfish, are there any more updates? :wave_1:

That is coming together really well. If you don't mind a plug, I've been getting custom designed 1934/5 aircraft for my Lexington here: https://www.shapeways.com/product/P4F3X ... li=ostatus . They are so much better than the Trumpeter aircraft it's almost embarrassing.

Hah! YES, they are! He did the BF2C-1s because I asked him to! Yeah, pricey, but makes Trumpy's planes look like rubbish...

I know it's been a while, but I'd love to see an update. I just recently got the kit myself, I'm going to build it pretty much out of the box, but change the planes so they are appropriate to Operation Leader, as the Dauntless' planes attacked German shipping in my neck of the woods, sunk at least a couple, but also lost 2 planes, with 1 crew lost (Tucker and Bakran). I worked at the aviation museum as a guide, and went to both memorials for the Dauntless crew and Avenger crew that were lost near Bodoe (my hometown) and Sandnessjoen. That must have been in 1992 or 1993 I believe.

Anyway Like what I've seen so far!
Cheers!
Harald
