I voted for the Skynight - but only if it's in Navy livery. If you plan on a Marine version then change my vote to the Hornet.

Love the Hornet but not seen a Skynight built at least for a while.

If I were to do the Navy version I would attempt gull grey over white. Not White and Dayglo orange.

Skynight Jeff, love that grey and white. Go great with that MB scooter you did.

Mayube Organe and White would work in a blitz. The plastic is light colored. Keep twisting my arm.

I voted for the Skyknight as it is not one I have seen see built very often.

Hornet for me (CBK isn't it?!) but I'd also be interested in seeing the Skynight being built - I haven't built either of these myself and don't have either in the stash, so it will be a win/win watching your Blitz. All the best with it Jeff.

Definitely Skyknight! Looks beautiful and I haven't seen any built yet.
