Gorgeous ship Geoff.

Actually, it looks more like a squash court. You can use the hanger doors as the back wall.

Looks like somebody screwed up then, since the squash court is backwards!

Very nice and stealthy ship there Geoff.

Hopefully the RN will follow suit.  :rolleyes:

Keep up the good work, and let's see more of your shipyard.
