Thank you cactus.  I am printing it and a copy of the cockpit and overnighting it to Gramps.  He thinks the game sounds as fun as it was in RL

Thank you from Gramps Shurig and my entire family

Beautiful work Cactus, I'll be giving that one a spin when it's in game and that is coming from a Giants fan who generally loathes anything with the word "Dodger" in it. :)

Has your Grandfather any photo's of the H model?

This unit I think only had two of these model's.

This is the only picture I have right now...I am trying to get more but my great aunt is very protective of Gramp's items...Gramps is the short guy in the middle...23 years old
