Very nicely done Mark, from start to completion. Good luck with that "Bif",
 it's a magnificently designed Kit but a real time consumer!
Cheers,
Lance

Congratulations on completing yet another brilliant model, Mark!  She's stunning and I can see how would be pleased with how she turned out.  Looking forward to your next project.
Cheers,
Bud

Thanks again folks:

@ Chris:  Thanks for looking in and your compliments, glad to see you back on the forum.  I would highly recommend this kit.  I thought I would have problems with the sight, but not to be, went in fairly well.
@ Lance:  Thanks for stopping by and your compliments.  The Biff will wait until fall I think.  Too robust of a project for now.  However, started the Eindecker.  ;)
@ Bob:  Thanks for stopping by and your compliments.  As mentioned above, Biff in the fall.
@ Bud:  Again, Thanks for stoppinb by and checking it out.  Appreciate the comments, it is a neat looking airplane.
@ Jim:  Thanks for checking in.  I will have it at NORDICON along with a "Demonstration", looking forward to seeing you there.
@ Tom:  Thanks for following along and your encouragement.  Biff in the fall.
@ Dave:  Thanks for checking in and your compliments.  Always appreciated.

Per usual, thanks to all not specifically mentioned above, your encouragement and comments are all duly appreciated.

Best

Hello Mark,

So sorry I wasn't at the finish. You made a beautiful Snipe my friend. As the others said, every stage of the build was teriffic. Your cockpit was awesome, well painted well rigged, in a word a stunning build. Many congratulations!

Kind regards

Really nice looking Snipe!
