Hi Harry,  Looks awesome.  You may want to flip flop 
your MBTs and AIR BOTTLES though,  So the flotation is 
on top and the heavier tanks are on bottom.
That's an expensive plexi dome to be covering up the 
view with a cowling?  You will also need a hinge back 
there.  But there is no reason to build one of these 
things if you don't build it the way you like it.
