    I love these unsung heroes of aviation and am really looking forward to the build progress and details. I'm almost as eagerly anticipating the further shenanigans and pontifications of our esteemed psycho-philosophers! This hobby just keeps growing new dimensions... (distractions? rabbit holes?)!

    Finished by Monday? Your going to have to learn to slow down, Adilcan. What happens if/when you get married? Have kids? You can't have your wife thinking you can complete a model in a few days. Building a pitot tube gives me at least two days peace, quiet, and some degree of mental health.

    R(I) x T + B(>)3 + iM + Lpp x Tn = MtFdTfAm

    Research (internet) x Time + Beer (3 or more) x iModeler + Looking at photos of planes x Time for Naps = MORE THAN FIVE DAYS TO FINISH A MODEL

    That said, good job on the plastic, Adilcan!
