If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

That's taking shape very nicely. For some reason I thought it was going to have twin tail vertical stabilisers.

Kit,

That's fantastic! A real fusion of the 3 kits and yet it still looks believable - somehow!

Nice paint job, too. East German markings?

regards,

Martin
