| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 13-Sep-07 19:02 |  | | Views : 933 | | moostang... the left wing "tweak" was successful! |
| John M Oshust | Scratch Built MiG3 | Build | 13-Sep-07 19:00 |  | | Views : 832 | | moostang....I think the wings are there, anything else will be hidden when the Mig is painted. |
