It looks like simple and clean break. No stretched or stress marks, no deformations. If this were mine I would likely just mix up some plastic epoxy and carefully glue it back in place. Just make sure you don't overdo the glue and sit with it and secure it as the epoxy sets. You might barely notice the break line but I'm sure it's no big deal.

If you just can't handle it let me know... I'll trade you a replacement wing and your offered WWII bird and then fix it myself and repaint it for me.

That should be an easy fix, dcmacharlie.

A little bit of glue, and you should hardly notice it. Easily pass the three foot test. Maybe a little putty/ and or paint as well.

Worst case, Zach [TKO] has offered to do this for you. Thanks again, TKO. :D
