I like the one with the backseat driver (I can't read the label).

The caption is "Finstructor"
I'll scan it later and hopefully show a higher res

I finally got home from Tokyo and remember I had to dig this out, forgive the crappy shot from Francis K Mason's book.

That reminded me that I did the tuning fork years ago.

It was one of the first casting projects I did. The master was made by Phil Cater (Formaly of this parish, as Rodger the cabin Boy)
From memory it was built to use Ye Olde Airfix P1127 kit.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

Isn't that one in the SIG cabinet at Coventry now?
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Thanks Doug.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Wow, what a brilliant (impractical?) contraption  :thumbsup:

The twin-fuselage contraption seems to be the worst of all possible worlds. Not only are the student and the instructor in separate cockpits, but the drag of that thing would probably limit it to hovering flights only. Careful with that yaw though, because it would probably disturb the airflow and stall the engine :rolleyes:
