I feel a Flitzer masquerading as an RAF Vampire F.1 coming on.

Done one as a Swiss Venom FB.4 already, and that was rebuild of a Swedish Vampire F.1.

How about a Vampire masquerading as a Flitzer?  ;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! :)

I might borrow this idea as I have both the Flitzer and the donor kit for the aerials.

here she is finished...wheels a little misaligned and some paint flaking off the canopy (must put on an undercoat next time...I dropped the model a couple of times and snapped off the antenna I don't know how many times...this is a pretty nice little kit, but it gave me a lot of grief...that's just cause I'm a hapless, hopeless modeller I suppose..I'm now working on my Uhu and the Hasegawa 109G, the one with Mickey Mouse on the fus

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Very nice: simple and convincing. Looks better than I expected in this all-black livery. I also have Flitzer somewhere in the stash... plan is to replace the central cockpit section with the respective parts from a Bv 141 with an underslung engine, as a ground attack version of the fighter. The only thing that's not settled is weher to put the front wheel... Another vague plan is a turboprop version with a propeller in the nose.

Oooooh..... What about a pusher in the tail.......??  :o

Why not - but it would need a (much) longer landing gear, IMHO. And a nose prop derivate (with a single tail, exhaust beneath) was under development as an attack aircraft.
