RIP, Jack. What a wonderful piece of work you have made!
What a fantastic piece of work! How he must have loved to bring the project to a good end. It is a pity he could not enjoy the result much longer.
Fantastic project.. its so sad he passed away in 2020 before really enjoying her.. let's hope he lives on as this wonderful build travels the airshow circuit..
