Great plane. It was one of my favorite models to build as a kid.

Me too! It was one awesome,timely and badly needed bird. Kind of a shame this project is not flyable. Doesn’t diminish the efforts of these workers...18k+ hrs of labor in their spare time.

Yea, that was fun. After you put the paper on it you would wet it. When it dried and shrunk it was ready for the paint. Cutting those pieces out of balsa wood was not easy. Loved the smell of Testors glue.
