Yeah, that should work OK.  :thumbsup:
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! :)

Any old Mirage would do, wouldn't it?

Not an F1 though................

- 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.

So ya gonna end up with a Super Swifty then is ya Leigh 🤔 😀😀
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Not sure about the physics, but I would have thought delta wings may make it a bit faster?  ;D  :thumbsup:

I can't see why not ..less wing area ..less drag should mean more speed even tho the stall speed will be alot higher ..hell even if it sucked who cares ??
The cool factor is pretty high here 😎  :thumbsup:

It's a very well known physics law that the cool factor increases the Mach number by 10 %.  ;D

Oh the desk cleaning task..im not going to say mine is clean...not even close  ;D
I've gotta sort it out before I can start my Aussie M48 build for this GB .
Was going to post the normal jazz before the build starts but it's raining here and I have to put my cell on the roof so I get a strong signal.
Yes it does suck that badly here .
