Hi, Terry!  Long time, no see!
Yeah, sorta been quiet for a while.  Guess I've been gone and forgotten.

*Almost* forgotten.  I was *this* close, too...  :-,  Just kidding.  I've been
hearing about your LDraw-admin feats behind-the-scenes, so I figured you'd post
again some time soon...  Glad to see ya again.  Think you'll be putting out new
models soon?

One thing that really amazed me was all the empty space available in the
leading edge of the wing.  It seemed cavernous, with wiring harnesses strung
leisurely between spars. The F-16 wing leading edge on the other hand is
packed. Tighter than 2 pounds of spamcake in a 1 pound tin.  Which makes it
hell to work on.

I'll have to look closer next time I see one (one's on display here at Hill
AFB), but it sounds like the wing is a bit thicker than most fighters' wings.
How many plates thick minifig-scale do you think it'd be?

Cheers,
