| The P-80 is very close to the same scale as the Mosquito. |

| I wanted to ask: What's going on with the P-80? And will it be a P-80 or an F-80? |

| Work on the P-80 will resume when I finish the painting I've been working on since November. Another coat of filler is required before starting the finishing process. I'm working on the Mosquito sporadically when my eyes can't handle the painting. P or F unknown at this time. |

| If anyone is wondering about the difference, it is the little red bar in the "stars and bars". When the US Air Force was formed in 1947, they added the red bar. And plane designators changed from "P" (Pursuit) to "F" (Fighter). The P-51 immediately became the F-51. |

| It will be an F-80. |
