Hey, Tim!  I was wondering if you had seen this.  I was just about to email this to you: http://forum.ww1aircraftmodels.com/index.php?topic=2930.0
I know I often toss around the words "extraordinary", "phenomenal" and "astonishing" in describing many of the builds that I see here and they are truly heartfelt, but this is something else.  Otherworldly, maybe. 
Cheers,
Bud
