Status: offline 		Hi Snake Stuka;

Keep up the excellent effort, great pics. Like your use of wood screws re firewall assembly. I use that method all the time on my large models when using the DA 100 etc.

Wanted to purchase a 1/4 scale FW-190 and have looked at building plans, Airworld and Sis-T models. Sis-T are not available until summer of 2008. Sis-t maintain that their FW 190 will be a little more scale in appearance !!!!

From what I've seen of the Airworld it looks pretty good with the panel lines rivets etc.

Thanks again for putting this building thread together.

Regards
Randy
