Wow! Just incredible. When you first showed the wing I knew it would be special but this is out of this world!  :bow: Great decision to add more to the union jack as well!  :wub:

Ah,yes! With the Union Jack filling up across the fuselage even with the wing trailing edge, she is perfect!

The RAF should take note of this, it would be SUPERB in real life too.
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! :)

When its finished, he should send pictures to the RAF's PR Dept.  They might take note of it.  Sure would look pretty on a real machine....

Thank you all for the continued kind words. I've been a bit under the weather and believe it or not, I got cold feet when it got time to mask and paint the canopy. :rolleyes: Got it done today. I'll be working (work work, not fun work, like modeling) through the weekend, so hopefully more pix soon....Thanks again Gents! :mellow:

Thank you Scooterman. I figured if I butchered the name bad enough someone would throw me a life line. For the life of me, I just couldn't remember their name.....

It looks great Eddie - like others have said, the RAF should take note of this (if they've got any left by Christmas... :rolleyes:)
