This is a worthy companion to the 1:48 Gambier Bay we have on display on the Midway's Hangar Deck--the details match well. Superb work! --Karl

Carriers can be very tedious, I applaud your patience and your skill.

Your aircraft are very impressive knowing that they are only about an inch long. Very well weathered and compliment the work you did on the ship.

Very impressive work. I have Gambier Bay high up on my "to do" list, but have no illusions that my rendition of her would look anywhere near that good! Congratulations on a job very well done. Bob
