Tom, I'm coming in here from left field but, I caught a picture of
your spacewalker on the Warner site and fell in love with the color
scheme. I am at present in the process of completing a 1/3 scale RC
model of your aircraft. I can enter it in RC scale contests if I can
show that the subject aircraft actually exists. If I can complete an
accurate represantation and show proper documentation at RC scale
contests, I can be more competative. Having said all that, I want to
know if I can get in touch with you by Email in order to get a better
idea of the detailing.
