Got it for about a third of the retail price in a store. None of the sprue bags opened. Score!

I'm not normally into modern (post WW2 :ha: ) aircraft but I really dig the look of this thing. A true brick with wings.
Good choice! (And no rigging :-D )
Best wishes

I just came up with a really off-beat idea for this; still timing dependent but looking more likely now.
