 There's a news article by CNN that a Lun Class Ekranoplan is being moved to a new location in Russia where it will be a tourist attraction.
I attempted to build the 'Welsh Sea Monster ' through various kitbashing in 1/72 scale.  The only kit I own is the 1/144
A-90, well it's one and a half kits bought off Ebay.
Apparently this type of vehicle is being studied again to be put into production in the civilian/commerical market.
I'm not too sure if there's been a group build on this topic before,  I know it's been suggested a few times.
This has got me thinking,  another kitbash to reduced the size of the stash,  the Sunderland is quite safe from this build.
