Focus, shmocus....it all ends up the same!
As I said before, the real joy of the construction photos are the insight
into the building process. For instance, the first freighter seems to be
under development from a base-up approach, building the the floor first and
continuing up. Some start from the nose and work back, others on the
cockpit, others on the engines. All very interesting (to me anyway).
The fighter looks so promising...a shame to abandon it. Great shape to it.
Thanks for the peek!
Cheers,
