Thanks, Jessie.
Works great now! However, I think the Hamsters stole ten while you were looking away.

Tpyos happen. I have a request out to the forum Mods to have that corrected. It's only the thread title thankfully; the feature wasn't harmed.

There's been a few times I wanted to edit a thread title, so I hear ya. Would be nice to be able to fix it ourselves.

I seem to recall seeing a B-29 at Duxford but not in this paint job. Any info on this incarnation?
