It dose look superb, I might have a look and see, been working on the Stratofortess yesterday and it very tricky creating the texture.

Yeah! The French would've choked (remember de Gaulle?) on the notion of having to use an American tanker...
But, mon ami, if we have to, it will look more beautiful for being in the Armée de l'air!
What a great repaint, beautifully screened too.
