| Thank you sir. The cowl has a long way to go and I hope that I can figure out how to make it look real. |

| "Tanks" for the vote of confidence but "lettuce" wait until completion to see how terrific it is. |

| The Ford Trimotor you built is out of this world, OMG IT'S BEAUTIFUL. I am totally blown away by that airplane, I have never seen such a build. How long did that take you to build and how much did it cost ? My builds are nothing compared to yours. |

| Trimotor....About 350 hrs and $200, if my memory serves correct |

| Mr John M Oshust: I would love to see your Ford Trimotor in person, just saying, geez the things I could learn from someone with your experience. I can't get enough of that airplane, truly Fabulous. I have already spent about 2 hrs today looking at those pictures. |

| The Tin Goose was my third aeroplane model. I liked the camping gear that I placed inside. I have the plans if yee want to build one. Do not look to me for experience. I am a novice. I know very little about planes and aviation in general. What I know I have learned in the past 3 yrs. of building and hanging around on VA. Many here build to express their love of planes.... me...something to keep me from extinguishing the wife!!! |

| I didn't go that far if it's on the site, only so much time in a day. I am extremely humbled right now because of this website, totally amazeing. I had no idea about it while I have been model building, seriously. Nobody ever mentioned it to me, model shops etc.. Who knows if I had known about it, maybe my builds would be better than they are right now. Not to change the subject, but i would like to ask Mr David Ducket a couple of questions about the 1903 Wright Flyer if he doesn't mind. I have it on my table and looked at it, ready to build. Just need to figure a couple of things out. I will be posting my B-17 tomorrow again because it's under the wrong name, stupid me. I will post my questions then, hopefully he will answer them. |

| John may consider himself a novice at building models but you can learn a lot from a novice. Especially if your model has radial engines, an interior, guns....and if you want to see things made from things you may not have thought of. Regardless of how many years experience is involved, we all learn from John's builds. I, for one, have learned to avoid models which have radial engines. |
