Yeah it is, but most likely it'll be shot out of the sky in its first game (and flip upside down, or Jim will drop a large box on it (initially aiming it at you) :D

It has more chance of surviving its maiden voyage, being a commission, as James wont be in control of it.

jimbibbly, it's a very nice looking ship, looking forward to see her done, CONGRATULATIONS!  ;)

I've asked myself numerous times why someone hasn't jumped on the MDF/laser-cut Aeronef thing.  The fairly rigid lines would make it a simple line to produce kit-wise.  It would also allow a nice modular build

Boiler parts arrived and I've built and sprayed the aerofoils as well (still need weathering).





On track for a Christmas completion  :)
