"its a very interesting 'Gerry Anderson ' looking aircraft", that's just the right way to describe it! You can see how Fireball XL-5 might have been inspired by one of these.

Ya crafty bugger Tony. I been scratching my head thinking of obscure Russian Birds.... Was half expecting a Bear or the like
Still a Hustler will be nice. Look forwards to that. All that bare metal....

Loving the Hustler Tony! I see them on ebay from time to time, but they're always rather expensive

Hopefully I'll be in on this, Airfix Dambusters Lanc......possibly in action...
I'm not going to commit to this GB just yet as I have a lot on my plate over the next month. But you never know, I have an Academy B-17 and an Airfix Lancaster in the stash.
Its a nice size Ian , about 24" long and 15" wingspan , the nuclear bomb pod underneath is almost a foot long in itself!! cheers tony\ said:
Wow pritty impressive then Tony
Whilst I have no problem with the He 177 being included, I think that the He 177 technically had only two engines. It's the same for the Manchester with its Vulture engines.\ said:
I don't believe that a DB 606 (or 610) was two engines. It might have used components of two existing engines, but all the cylinders drove a single crankshaft and hence everything after that.
Just sayin'
Cheers

Having looked into this, I am inclined to agree with Steve.
That would look great hanging next to a B36..................\ said:
Hey Polux, or someone in the know, can you please confirm the four-engine GB ends at the end of June? I have dug out a B-17 and reckon I can do this now as my circumstances have changed slightly.
Oops, just saw the calendar and see it does indeed end at the end of June. Disregard my question please, I should read through the entire thread before asking questions.

Yep Joe!
Anyway, remember if you finish your model out of time....nobody will push you!
