Simply incredible. I look at your wiring harness, and then I look at my efforts, and knowing the struggles I endure while running the wires as poorly as I do, I honestly don't know how you do it. I tip my hat to you!

Cheers,

Chris

The way you paint metallic parts is fantastic - as they look like being parts made from metal, not from plastic. Really impressive.

    I'm lost for words again Des, absolutely incredible detail on the plumbing and wiring. This sort of work is in a class of it's own!

Another work of art Des, I always enjoy watching your builds, and will one day pluck up the courage to post my own work on here. A question, are you building and detailing this engine for a FE.2b? Or do you have plans for another airframe? Just curious
