Greg, I really like your canopy idea, the clear radar dish is a stroke of
genius. I so rarely like the windscreen options TLC provides, it's nice to
see a combination that works.
The pictures are good, especially compared to mine (but I just bought a
higher resolution web cam, 800x600, and hope to retakew a few of mine).
I'm a big folded wing fan, and consider it almost mandatory for any ship
carried inside another. I'm not sure who first did it, it must have been
before the Corsair, maybe the Wildcat? Mad props to that designer.
