Duly noted! Memory glitch walking from one room to another.

Andy chen -

Very nice work and you've really gotten due attention so I'd think, yes, Welcomed!! Must have been a good challenge.

Àndy we wont forget the F-18 !!

I think the development of these large scale foam warbirds is levelling up day by day, thanks to people like you as well as the guys at FMS who listen to and incorporate ideas of the modelling community into their scale planes !

Great work !

Windrider, FMS, Starmax and now this bird...

FMS, definately have some competition, now. Not that it's a 'competion' the more the merrier I say.

Nice P40.

Finally a P-40 with scale spacing for the u/c!

I'm guessing this is the BETA model, because to me the quality of the foam surface on the underside of the wing seems low compared to the rest of the model. Is anyone else seeing this, or is it just me?

Yeah, I see the surface is a little rough too at the gun bays though I wonder if the silver paint doesn't exaggerate the appearance. Probably a good guess as a beta sample as he's still working on the electrics. I hope they get any issues with that large spinner well solved before production.

I was thinking Mustang all the way 'till seeing this bird.

Very nice effort.

Ah, the Little Screamers P40! Do you know that they actually stole that scheme from Scott?! <LOL>
He had it first and they traveled into the future to copy it from his company logo.

I have photos of a full size plane vwith that scheme from last years air show.

don't know... have to research, but more than likely an OD one.

Why is the drop tank on backwards on the Eduards model box cover?
