        James posted the dimensions in his post on Page 3.
        Thank you Alpha! I am glad to know, just like your other works of art, that this one has received similar treatment.

          The BA F-18 is probably my all-time favorite non-recon jet and I have to say the profile and colors looks spot on...

            No doubt man. The F-18 to me, especially the C model, is a work of art. I think it looks amazing and the Blue Angel's paint scheme just sets it off in the best way. This model does it justice.

                          I am following along with interest in this upcoming new F-18 C model but currently have too much uncertainty in my life to get really excited about it.

                                    We are all thinking of you Bill sending positive energy, thoughts and prayers for a successful recovery. Hopefully you can keep flying in the meantime as I have found it to be tremendously therapeutic in times of illness or stress.

                                        Hi Bill,

                                        I don't know ya, so I'm not going to pretend to be your pal. I would, however, like to wish you the best of luck. I will pray for you. God speed.

                                        Best Regards
