Can't believe I'm doing this! In four weeks I shall be concentrating in hosting the Lancaster Family Type GB, welcome all by the way . I have on order a Zvezda Ju 87 I shall build in the Stuka STGB before the Lanc. I have those 6 F-16:s as wip. But: I just can't keep my hands off this little gem any longer! It looks like a beauty of a kit and I've read only positive comments from fellow modellers that have built it. For me they can sell a dozen kits with boxart like this! Sweet sprues! I think Pat @JOCKNEY finds very little in common with the Frog Dornier he built last year . 10 points to ICM for the box too. Revell, take a look and learn... ...instructions look nice too... ...like the paint diagram and clear sprue too! Edit: Superior pics and description of the kit can be read in a in-box review at our favourite modelling forum. Finally, a kit company that has given us the "plus" gives himself four times a "minus" for each "plus"; thus the grade for these decals is -18 . Really, they think we should add the four bars in each marking around the +! Aftermarket and spares to the rescue, no worries... I shall use the kit supplied plane number DN-57 though. It was a WW2 survivor and served through the hot defensive summer campaign of 1944, as the sole DN to remain operative from early June to September. The lucky one? She flew her last flight in July 1946, was stored until being written off in December 1952. There are several good pics of her and one taken in October 1944 shows she was still then wearing the insignia on white base. As I want to depict her like she appeared in the summer of 1944, I don't need to take any guesses about that either. V-P
