Wow Ryan, that is a beautiful P51. I can't believe you built it in 12 months. Look forward to the flight video.

Thank you, everyone, for all of the accolades.  I am amazed myself that I even built this bird.  I think it all boils down to patience, perseverance and a touch of OCD .  This build certainly had it's ups and downs as I did some experimenting with a chrome paint exterior which in the end didn't pan out and a lot of redo of the fuselage finish.  No venture, no gain.  In the end the pristine refurbished look that I was going for with a silver painted fuse matches the full scale that I was copying anyway.

Here is a picture of what could have been if the chrome had worked out.

Beautiful airplane- should fly as well as it looks.  It would make a good scale competitor- thanks for sharing these great photos-  Matt
