Thanks Red,

It sat on a shelf for a long time before I got it correct. I just could not get those sponsons correct. I wish that Trumpeter would do the Forrestals like they did the Nimitz Class!

Thanks gtb, Totally agree Mark, Forrestals, Kitty Hawks/America, JFK and Enterprise in CVAN/CVN guise are needed as are the 3 Midway members.

We can hope and dream and scratch some dreams.

Happy modeling

John

I signed up for this Group Build earlier this year and I will follow through with the commitment. I finally have the kit I'm going to do. It is Dragon's new USS Hornet kit which I picked up at my LHS today.

I'm going to build this for the 2010 IPMS Seattle Spring Show.
