Thanks guys, I appreciate the compliments. What you're seeing is something I've been at a LONG time. The first two Travel Air Mystery Ships (of the five made) had a Wright J-5-9 radial and an inline Chevolair engine While it was a more beautiful plane, the Chevolair was such a bad engine that Walter Beech wouldn't allow it to be flown back from it's debut at the 1929 Cleveland Air Races. Instead he had it disassembled and shipped back by rail. Later he re-engined it also with a radial.
Should I actually succeed at getting this released this time (I gave up making promises long ago) they will be part of a package of all five Mystery Ships with both the Chevolair and radial models of R613K for a total of 6 models and 9 textures. I've put every other project I have on hold until it's done, so we shall see...
