Chuck pilots G - Glen again!

Okay, so I chopped the legs off off a spare alien pilot from Dragon's weapon set and put him at the stick of my Dragon GG Mustang -- just kind of bugs me to display in-flight models with no pilots... Looks better I think, but man did that little guy ever scream...

Pappy B

What scale are those planes?

I like your display, must look real nice when lit up.

Finally, an answer to my question about the kill markings on this mustang.

I knew you'd like it Skunk! Seeing as you're a big fan of the pilot figs in question....

I'm working on a better fix, perhaps, which will be interesting... I'll post the operation when I do it.

I think it looks cool... looks kinda like Chuck would look right now if he were to climb into a P-51 and take her for a spin at an airshow!

My rationale is he just took an f-15 out for a spin and then hopped out of that and into his old P-51 for another ride... see, it all makes sens Anyhow you can't really tell from normal viewing distance what/who exactly is in there, so for now it's fine -- and better than a ghost pilot.

Makes perfect sense to me.
