Re: 1:48 Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.9
Well done! Very well done!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

That got to be one of the maddest looking WWI aircraft I think I've seen - I would not have wanted to be an air gunner in that bastard.
Superb build CL

Woooooh! That has to be the funkiest design that I’ve seen yet from the Royal Aircraft Factory. The mid fuselage prop is mind blowing! The nose gunner is really in a precarious position.
That is a very sharp build Peter!

Aerodynamics weren't developed that far back then, wasn't they?
What a crazy stringbag. Well done, CL!
