Love the markings! Sure reminds me of online retailer Squardon.

It's together good enough for pictures. I weathered it with an oil paint dot filter and a silver pencil, and made a mat for it from a section of Woodland Scenics dry grass. It needs to be stuck down on something so it will lay flat, or maybe I should preserve the lumps on the middle but get the edges to stay down somehow. Movie at the end, just for Carlos.

This whole layout is just too cool. Aside from a good lookin' build up already, what I'm really liking is the way you used the APU to power up the electric prop motor. I couldn't pull the movie up either but am looking forward to seeing it.

I am catching up after being absent for couple of weeks. I totally loved the video clip especially the moving propeller! You hit home run with this one and I really enjoyed following your build as usual.

Yes it can, Jean Marc, and there is also a generator you can put in it in place of a battery. It says in the instructions that when the generator was running the cover was often left open for better cooling.
