I plan on doing a box review shortly I am curious as well. This one had the new canopy and a longer nose due to a larger engine so it will be interesting to see how that carries through to the kit.

In my castle....

I think....that the outer wings are wrong, covered in fabric instead for metal or so I've heard/read somewhere....

Yep, and I mudded up and sanded the offending fabric areas in no time. There is a bit of room between the fabric and panel lines so lost detail is kept to a minimum

Love the "Pukin' Dogs". Thinking of doing all the aircraft that sported the logo, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down the road

Nice Jim. I had to Wiki that bad boy as I had never heard of it. Several things stood out, "...larger than the Mosquito...initial trials revealed serious handling difficulties on the ground, the aircraft snaking while taxiing....6 20mm canon in a pod...". Understandable as to why only 1 was made with just 28 flights
