Thanks L.A.
The photos of Heavy Date do not show the wings too well and I just want to get it right.
The model is coming along and with the warmer weather I am spending more time out in the shop. I have started to fiberglass the wing and parts of the fuse and have even put some of the aluminum skin on. I think it is going to look pretty good when finished.  I think this will be my last big project for awhile! I am at close to $7000.00 now and have a bit more to go. My Wife laughed when I had to replace the tires on my truck because all 4 tires mounted and balanced was $50.00 less than the main wheels for the B-17!!!
Thanks again for the info. I'll add the markings.
