    With the Corsair and Spitfire knocking out each jet it was up against, I thought that it was going to be a close match for the A-10 and the Tomcat. This round will definitely be interesting

          I am surprised by the final 4. I knew the A-10 would make a dent as it's in RC guys minds a lot. I figured it would give the Mustang a run for the money, but to sweep the F-18, Mustang and Corsair was surprising.

          Then the SR-71. When I made that West bracket, I never would have guessed that the final 2 there would be the SR-71 and P-40. I really thought the B-29 was going to hold firm.

          I thought the F-4 would have beaten the Raptor as well.

          The Tomcat is the least surprising to end up in the final 4 for me, but then again, it beat the Spitfire.

          This has been a ton of fun to watch and follow. I have some ideas on how to do this better now that we got a precedent to build on. Good luck to everyone on top.

            I would wager that if the goal was to determine the next most desired models to build, the results may have been somewhat different. Regardless, this has been great fun. :Cool:

                        The Warthog is proving to be as tough in this contest as it is in real life!

                          Learning to fly these might be a good idea.

                                What Happened to me? I was 1070 at the end of the last round? I did vote in this round, and did pick the A-10. Very curious indeed. I think there is a problem here. Oh Well.
