I finished whiffing the Arii one over Christmas, still haven't done a back story yet so it hasn't been posted. Left the gear off because it was horrid, and the floats were used many years ago on my Boeing 727-200 Ekranoplan.

There isn't really much to the gear is there?  Just two curved struts. They might come in handy for something else.  Like a tricycle Bird-dog if can ever get another of the Airfix kit.

Thats two kits Airfix need to re-pop next - the Birddog and the Skymaster.  After the Rotodyne obviously.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

Obviously.  ;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! :)
