I was attempting to do this one for the Bright and Cheery GB, but I never quite made it.

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

The few issues which were created by my ham-fistedness included forgetting to fit the undercarriage supports prior to putting the wings together (hence why it is gear-up!).
Other than that, it's a nice wee kit. I've another in the stash.
