Thanks guys! This was my first real NMF aircraft and I have to say that I really enjoyed doing it! I always thought they must be extraordinarily difficult to do and avoided them. It turns out they really aren't that bad if you use the right materials (Alclad II) I'll definitely be doing more Natural Metal Finish aircraft in the future!

Thanks!

Maybe I should do a Streak Eagle or whatever they called the SU-27 that did the World Record speed climb next... Natural metal is addicting!
