    Nice job Dave. If you don't mind, please take note of the photo requirements here: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/gro...nts-17034.html (Group Build Photo Requirements.). We'll need a shot from behind. The one you have of the underside can be used as one of 4 optional pics you're allowed in addition tot he 6 mandatory shots.
