    Hi John, with ur level of skill i would say any place is a good place to start, as for the make i would't know i've only built 4-5 plane's in my life.

    When you come to build it i will be watching with intrest.

        Not built one chap but there are a few reviews online. Most are pretty positive,though it seems to have been designed to be built opened up with wings folded. Apparently if you want the wings "open" a bit of care is needed.

        It's got to be better than the old Revellogram offering!

        Cheers

            As steve says it should be a good kit , but be careful if you want the wings spread . Ive got the Monogram 1/48 devastator in the stash and its a very nice kit, in its day (about 1981) it was considered state of the art and still makes quite a nicely detailed build today , cheers tony
