Nigel: That is a real solid build you have there! The finish is beautiful and well executed. Definitely a top shelf model, and a great representation of the P-47. Thanks for showing it to us. I'm sure it will inspire others to do the same. Cheers! John

Hi Guys!! Guess what? My P47 was awarded a "Commended" certificate in the Aircraft Class at the Wombourne Aerospace and Vehicle Club annual Model Show today So now my Bubbletop has a certificate for a base and pride of place in the display cabinet! Nige
