These were great trips and were a great opportunity to get this nice pair of engines out into the public eye.

I love the picture of nose diamond with all the scratches, runs, and touch-ups. Lets see you modelers out there try to match that! :-D

That would define a true modeler with dedication.......I know of at least 12 different colors
