    The wrong one is always better than none IMHO. Many observers are unaware of the significance of the numbers. I've seen many military models w/wrong German license plates & US serial#s. I think it falls under minutia, but I still try to be accurate where convenient. PaulE

        I agree completely. It will be barely noticeable that it’s the wrong number, while no number will be far more obvious.

          I’m getting closer to the end of the build. Here’s a update just a few small things and I’m calling it done. I’ve added the Wheels, prop, canopy and a few small items. Hope to wrap this up tonight.Click image for larger version

                      Paint job was unusual, but came out great. After market tires really do make a big difference. PaulE
