Great Pics, Matt!

My Shuttle is close in size and is pretty heavy, but yours, with it's
thicker wings and reinforced features must weigh at least 30 percent more!Do
you ever try to "swoosh" it? Again, nice work...the Emperor would be most
pleased...

Thanks Brian!  Swoosh it?  Well, during modification, the vertical stab fell
on the top of my foot (indescribable pain) so I think I'll remain satisfied
with a static display =0)  I couldn't guess the weight, but the majority of
it is in the three stabilizers.  I built the folding wings like a sandwich
to get the slot effect along the edges.
