This kinda works for me. Try to catch that Sky Captain trailer again. Your Nighthawk reminds me of one of those flapping bad guy planes. Fradel (22 years ago, 13-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

Thanks Gil! I went to see the link Larry posted. Actually I wanted this pick-up to have a retro look, inspired by 50's / 60's pick-up. At first I used the canopy from the Santa Fe train engine, but it wasn't that smooth..... Cheers, JP. (22 years ago, 13-Feb-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
