  1. Beautiful rendition of the British Spook, Bruno! Ciao
  2. I'm not sure this is a good idea But yes, beautiful model, CC! Ciao

Crews tended to leave them off, though, because removing and putting them back was a bit of a PITA - even in the North African theater, where they served their main purpose, anti-sand covers. How often this actually happened is still a debated question, so when I did mines I built the 202 without covers and the 205 with.... Ciao
