There is this too, in the Stettin technical museum. With parts from the Fiat 126.

Owing to the current financial difficulties, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

A 1:1 scale Whiff, the De Havilland Vennet Mk.II:



"DH Vennet Mk II. It could just as easily been called a "Gannom" as the name derived from the mixture of Venom and Gannet used to build it. The "Vennet" was contrived by engineers of No.12 Hangar at Abbotsinch for Navy Day 1961. The conversion involved an old Sea Venom with its tail booms and tip tanks removed and  a pair of Gannet rudders fixed to the boom attachment points. A "supersonic" pitot nose intake and two pipe-derived fake missiles were added to match. On Navy Day, "Vennet" reached 90kts. on the runway, its tired Ghost engine generating lots of noise and fun."

The H&Ss would go BANANAS if anyone did that today.  ;D
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! :)
