chuck540z3 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Just awesome my friend! The word "Precision" keeps popping into my head when I look at these detailed pics and I tried to pick one that was my favorite. I can't really, because I love them all. The landing gear is as beautiful as the super detailed cockpit and that metal skin everywhere oozes modeling perfection. Congratulations, and I bet you are a bit relieved to get this beauty finally over the goal line! Cheers, Chuck airscale 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAG Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 A MAGNUM OPUS in every sense of the word. Gob fully smacked, congrats, Mr. Castle, you are the true embodiment of a master modeler. airscale 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkd1966 Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I can only echo what everyone else is saying Peter - B-E-A-U-TIFUL job there Sir... I am curious though if you know why they originally restored Lopes Hope 3rd with the dorsal fin and then either a year or maybe two later - removed it from the aircraft... I have never heard any reports of any issues with them as John Sessions "B" model "Impatient Virgin" and also Jack Rousch's "B" model "Old Crow" still fly with the fins installed...

Daniel Iscold Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Speechless. Congratulations Peter, your build are always an inspiration to us, your attention to details is massive and a hard level to reach... airscale 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrennan Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Words fail me to describe this build - it looks real ! airscale 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirCorps Library Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 I've shared some images of this build with a number of enthusiasts, and almost all of them had a hard time believing that this was not the airworthy version of Lopes Hope!! Looking at the pictures side by side is truly a testament to your skills Peter. Absolutely amazing work! airscale, Out2gtcha, R Palimaka and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
