What Thomas said ^^^^^

It looks REALLY good, especially the yellow cockpit window surrounds, very Lightning-esque.  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
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! :)

That was on the decal sheet, so it seemed a waste not to use them.

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

When I was a kid, I built a 1/72 F-111 (Airfix?) and it was huge, the 1/48 model of yours should be even bigger, by 50%, does it have a full room for itself? ;D
