Thanks for you comments my friends, Thank you Hugo.

Yes, this flights between Condors are amazing, some of them have really more wingspan than my models, specially the ones with with neck. I thinck some of them fall in love with my Gentle Lady .

When you see this beautifull air monsters flying around, you remember that they are the Kings of Air.

Best regards,

Mario
