I've sen that kit but I've never had one, I always preferred the Monogram 1/32 Mustang.

Some people just have bigger balls than the rest of us.

Bob Hoover never did things at airshows that required outsize orbs, you could always tell the maneuver was meticulously planned, perfectly executed, and always left him an out if things went wrong. As to stealing an Fw-190 and escaping Germany, well even he questioned the sanity of that once he had taken off and realized he was now flying a German airplane into Allied territory. Chalk it up to being young.

I think the DC-6 did more of a corkscrew than anything. Still impressive.
Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.
