Remember when I added the Gnat canopy to the Typhoon, well I then had a Gnat minus it's canopy! The smart thing to do would have been to throw the kit in the bin, but I'm not smart! No, I bought two more Gnats and built 'this'! I was going to say it was from a Thunderbird episode, but it's not is it.

Models :3 Gnat's. the outer canopies are balsa and bog, and I painted the real canopy so you really can't tell the scale.

Nice!  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Oh yeah, that is a beauty.

Yeah!  Could see that as part of the World Air Force, definately.  We need a Thunderbirds/Gerry Anderson build!
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Not sure what "bog" is as a modelling medium but the final product certainly is likable (and enviable).  Nice choice...of everything, Glenn.
