Most impressive! Yes

I nominate it the might-have-been "Handley Page Harridan." Seems an appropriate monicker for its appearance.

Looks like a Humbly Pudge Gallipoli to me.

Could you give us a shot without the car background?  It is a bit hard to see detail on the plane.

Not sure of the scale,perhaps 1/72 for a large bomber.It is made of sheet styrene and wood.Carved the props out of mahogany.

No, the Gallipoli was a cantilever monoplane.  I believe the sole surviving example is still sitting in that woman's yard, repurposed as a chicken coop.  And the RAF have yet to respond to her repeated pleas to have it removed!

What I would give to see one of the Gallipoli's special boarding ladders, since no photos or drawings have ever been found.  As have the ladders themselves.  Big Smile
