That's one funny looking aeroplane, but very good nonetheless.  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage

I read the title and thought, a RNlAF B-70 Valkyrie trainer. Now that is a very interesting idea !

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Thanks David but I drove by my local hobby shop this afternoon. Have all the black paint I'm going to need.
Now for some time. Can you send THAT to my place?
