Thank you for looking in.

Jim, Pete is no king. His official title is Dark Lord. You should use it lest you incur his wrath and find yourself surrounded by his minions.

I've never took a lot of notice if these kits, but just recently been looking at your increasing collection and realised how good they look. Might have to have a go myself.

Thank you Jim now on to fighter aircraft, there might be some jets to.
As far as king of the toons I'm a long way off of that, I'll post some of my friends toons.

Cheers Paul, some are better than others and most have upgrade kit available or to can scratch built if like but the main thing is there just fun to build.

Don’t think I commented Pete. Another good one to add to the shelves...you don’t see models of this is any scale very often, so I am quite surprised there is a toon of it. I seem to remember that Winkle Brown said of all the aircraft he flew this was the one he thought was the most dangerous. It never felt stable or robust. Weird for a large four engined plane.

It's nothing that anyone else on here can't do if they want to and probably better, but thank you.

It's certainly a strange one for them to have chosen I would have thought the He-111 would have been a better option, when I got the kit I did a bit of reading up on it and as you can it's only got two propellers, it has four engines two couple together and as you say quite a few pilots didn't like it.
Cheers Pete.
