The Woomera's a great looking aeroplane, and that Whiffy torpedo bomber is really good.  :thumbsup:

A pity the RW aircraft was never produced in numbers, it looks a mean machine.

Found it accidently via google search that led me to facebook and opened the posted pic there through the "show picture" back door; since I do not have facebook access, I am not certain to which group/chat/whatever it actualyl belongs, or if it has been re-posted there from an external source.  :-\

Another proof that online users seem to miss the cultural technique of "reading" (involving one of my builds):

They don't let  few facts get in the way of their interpretation of any old pic they see............. <sigh>

LOL  I checked that website out a bit - they don't have a lot, but I think they're further round the bend than we are! 

They have this, which is just weird:


I do like this, though:

IIRC that's a RW engine test bed, I've seen pics of it elsewhere.

I have a B17 in the stash earmarked to get a setback cockpit like that.  I think it really improves the look of the Fortress.
Mine won't have a fifth engine though.  I'll come up with another reason.  Maybe they needed to make room for the first class lounge and piano bar?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.
