Nice, but it's a little tail heavy......looks like some of the fuselage stringers need replaced due to corrosion effects of too long in salt water.Big Smile

I'd like to get one in 1/48 or even 1/32 scale.

Cool idea and execution, but I thought Navy types were squids.

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.

I've heard that variant was not well liked by the pilots for its handling.  It kept porpoising. 

I build 1/48 scale WW2 fighters.

Have fun.
