Well better than those snobs over on Britmodeler!
Really they aren't snobs at all and I quite enjoy it over there even if most are in the UK.

Yeah, but with the exchange rate, it's a bargain.

If I ordered it from the US it would probably be $40 or more shipping! None of it makes sense.

I got my original idea to do that crashed model from a thread in the modeling forum. The guy is building the intact plane for a museum display and posted the crashed picture along with his reference ones. I said I would love to do the crashed version and everybody thought I was joking. After some PMs and emails I convinced them I was serious and now, when I am done, the finished model will be getting shipped to England to be displayed in the USAAF 453RD BG museum! The pressure is really on for this one!

If you are ever in Georgia, the Warner Robins Air Base Museum of Aviation (which I highly recommend in itself, and was discussed in a separate thread) has a large display of aircraft models assembled by various modeling clubs. It must have been 50 to 100 feet long. As an aside, I have flown an airplane that is in the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum at Dulles in Washington, DC. It's a C152 Aerobat that was used for aerobatic school in Suwannee, TN. I took an aerobatics course at the school in the plane. It was donated after Bill Kershner (the owner, author of many aviation training manuals and known as the "Spin Doctor" for having done more than 8,000 spins in his career) passed away. They replaced it with an identical Aerobat.

You could visit in person! Viewing with the throng of 5 may be rough though. I understand it is not a huge place but is still a functioning private airfield so has survived for 80 years.
