Gorgeous!  :wub: :wub: :wub: :wub: :thumbsup:

But can you repeat the photos? ;D

Sorry but I don't have the model ysi_maniac, OGL is looking after it so that it can get the Telford as I unfortunately can not make it there this year as I had expected to earlier.

Perhaps OGl could take a few pictures or find someone that could?

That's a nice build, Gondor, plenty of confusability factor there. 
At least 3 P-40Q whiffs at Telford - but will they be put next to one another on the SIG stand I wonder?
;D ;D

David that would require planing and forethought...need I say more  :banghead: :wacko:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

You have my FULLEST admiration!  :bow: :bow:

I spent an entire week of my holiday evenings trying to put that same contra-prop together and totally failed. Luckily our Chris (Narses2) came to the rescue with an Aeroclub metal one.  :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! :)
