I like it VERY much!  :wub:

Well done indeed.  :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! :)

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

Thanks, all. I like it too, but the build is certainly not to Dizzy-standard. Then again - that's not my ambition. I'm very well at peace with what I do, and I'm really just after the joy of designing after my own mind. If everything ends up aligned - then the better. 😉

Now, for the next build. And the next after that. Incidentally m, both will be reconnaissance aircraft, so inspired by the GB if not within it. As things should be.

I was looking at my Shak today but all I can think of doing to it now is moving the wings back and adding a single vertical tail.
