GreyGhost Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Beautiful as always, Red ... I love your photos being posed in a manner like the real ship's photo ... BTW, that last shot of the Real ship must have been late in her career with the Scooters being equipped with the "Hot Dog" ECM antennas on the vertical stabs ...
