That is pretty cool !

Love little aeroplanes with big radials....sweet........

I think it would look even better with two smaller tails behind each engine, give it more of a funky experimantal kinda look !

Cheers !

Whoa!

Awesome!!!

Toad, this is a little airplane with little radials, as it was underpowered.

I have the ESCI one that I bought for 10$, then I saw the Revell Germany one (same as Hasegawa) for 20$...

D'oh!

:D  :P  :cheers:

Funky indeed!  Full marks for imagination :)


And its only just occured to me, but I reckon the forward fuselage/cockpit of the HS-129 is an ideal shape for a futuristic/sci-fi type fighter.  Waddya reckon?
