Hi Chris
This is looking increasingly gorgeous with every post!
I hope you're planning on a Frontpage Feature when your Brisfit's finished - because that's where it deserves to be. 
All the best

I am amazed at the quality of the builds here. They have always been good, but the builds seem to have evolved to an even more impressive level as we post and share. Your build is most impressive. Maybe you should be building real airplanes.

Thank you for the kind comments CaptainA! I was an auto mechanic for a number of years but gave up on it. As I am a heavy truck driver now these help me relax after a long day.
