If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Yes, absolutely ditto!splash wrote:That is some brilliant detail work, but it begs the question "How much will be seen once the body is assembled?"
I built one of these when new, before I heard about the nacelle shape issues. It looks good anyway!

Hi to all
I finished the "Warning Star" project
I applied the decals and stencils of the Caracal models set for the version: EC 121 BU.No.141325 VW-13, NAS Patuxent River 1962
I assembled and detailed the wheels.
These are the final images:
