Thanks. It's getting there. I'm still trying to figure out from Orville's description how the elevator mecahnism works (for animation). Might need to go down to Owl's head again to take a another look at their replica. Still thinking about wing warping...

You guys just caught a bad revision. After commiting the addition of the drive chain runners I realized I forgot to do that. Actually in ac3d it's pretty easy. Just grouping and ungrouping the transparent objects puts them down the bottom of the list.
