Nice work. Built the model years ago as an rc model. Great flyer. I also built the small Sterling that requires massive rework so as to not look like a ball bat. :D Flies well too

They look good in silver. Here's the small Sterling P47
Seems the file must be too large to load

thank you for your encouragement, Scott - the project was involved and took some time to complete.
I also have the Guillow 1000 series Corsair F4u and the Dc-3 here yet to build.

anyone who wants to see the construction of this model can go to Heywood Planes on YT and see several of my builds including this one
