I saw this and a silver version on banana hobby for $80 in like may, is the same model, and how much did you pay for just the aircraft alone???
A helicopter does not want to fly, it just vibrates so much that the ground rejects it

Unfortunately no, the JU-88 is around 1/15 scale, the B-25 is more like 1/17 scale. Thanks, I've put a lot of work into the plane.
Thanks, what is the wingspan of your B-25? Alot of people have big collections but not many have a 1/18 B-25 8)

The B-25 is a thing of beauty :D :D

B-29,
holy....... :shock: Your B-25 looks fantastic!!
It's a very impressive looking model, nicely finished as well.
I couldn't help but notice the detail in the cockpit, well done. Oh and the
Sherman and tank truck look great, nice work.

Great work! Love the Sherman interior. Have you thought about converting that Jeep to a "Follow me"?

I paid $159. That is a different model then I used, and is around 1/14 scale. It is also less detailed than the model I used: http://www.flyingstyrokit.com/30-north- ... hell-.html.

No, but now I am.. However it has made me think about making my table into the flight deck of the Hornet...

The wingspan is about 47 Inches, it's one massive bird. 8)

That's about a foot more than the 1/32 B-17 kit I'm waiting for this next year.
