Looks good.

Did you get Walt to sign off on the design?

I gotta say, your designs are improving!  That one looks like a winner!

     Since we got an Avenger and a Dauntless the Zero seemed a must.

Perhaps a little "executive sign off' by Walt let it, you know, get legal.

     Walt did not design this kit and Scientific did not produce it -- so that means that it is an Illegal Alien at Musciano Contest.

We get around that by having "Hollow Log" contests.  48 sq.in. minimum area, fuselage from solid, and cross-section no smaller than a Babe Bee backplate.

     How about if I put on the Box  "Approved by Walt Musciano" ?
