    @gblair, thank you, George. Although not the easiest approach, I thought it would be interesting to display that impressive jet engine of the Sabre.

    @fiveten, thank you, Spiros. First time this happened to me, same approach for the upper and lower side but with different results. I should be able to finish it by this weekend.

    This looks great @johnb - doint it opened up gives a completely different result.

    The Sabre really does look amazing 🤩
    Odd what happened to the decal on the underside of the wing, but luckily you were able to bring back the damage to a minimum.

    Truly magnificent JOhn (@johnb). I agree with the others, opening up the Sabre gives a unique look to the aircraft, not one often seen. Very cool and well done!
