Very gratifying to see (your DeHavilland Sea Hornet) finished - and very nice review, as always. And great use of thumbnails, Skipper. I can't begin to tell you how much faster and more enjoyably this post loaded on my (ancient) dialup connection, buddy!

Also I finally realized what it was that bothered me about the name "Sea Hornet" for this plane. It's because, instead of looking like an insect, with its black radome nose the F-20 always reminded me far more of a mouse. (Although I'm sure that wasn't the impression if one was approaching with those four '20s and 5" HVARS opening up on you!)

In any case, a very cool naval adaptation of the Mossie, and great addition to the Board here, Skip!

Cheers,
