They are all dead by now, it's all Hollywood CGI made by contractors overseas .

Nice, thank you for the feedback.

You have to measure and compare the length of your legs Harvey. One is longer.

He is just pulling your leg guys.

You're most welcome, I have two of them and the casting has no bubbles or distortions. Cheers M.

Masterful build Carl. What would you say about the track, was it with the effort? Cheers M.

This is the future of model building. Way to go Mike ! Ki-98 is pretty rare in any scale

Hi Paul, welcome to the forum. Real Model makes decent set , crisp molds and excellent service. Cheers Martin

To me it looks like a very heavy impact where the major part of the energy was absorbed by the roof structure that is naturally designed to take a top load then transferred into the bearing walls of the building. Everything had to be tossed inside .

Status: Date: Thursday 19 December 1946 Type: Douglas C-47A-10-DK (DC-3) Operator: Railway Air Services Registration: G-AGZA C/n / msn: 12455 First flight: 1944 Engines: 2 Pratt & Whitney R-1830-92 Crew: Fatalities: 0 / Occupants: 4 Passengers: Fatalities: 0 / Occupants: 1 Total: Fatalities: 0 / Occupants: 5 Aircraft damage: Damaged beyond repair Location: 1 km (0.6 mls) NE of London-Northolt Airport (NHT) ( United Kingdom) Phase: Initial climb (ICL) Nature: Domestic Scheduled Passenger Departure airport: London-Northolt Airport (NHT/EGWU), United Kingdom Destination airport: Glasgow-Renfrew Airport, United Kingdom Narrative: It was a cold, snowy evening at London-Northolt Airport, when the DC-3 taxied into position for takeoff. The snow storm had closed the airport to incoming traffic, and outbound traffic was subject to long delays. The plane had been waiting for more than an hour waiting for clearance. When G-AGZA received clearance, the pilot ran the engines up to 45.5 inches of manifold pressure and 2,500 RPM. The DC-3 lifted off the runway but couldn't gain height. The aircraft landed on top of a house at 46 Angus Drive in the London suburb of Ruislip. Probable Cause: PROBABLE CAUSE: "The pilot taking off when the aircraft was almost entirely covered with snow. In doing this the pilot committed an error of judgement." Sources: » The Civil Aircraft Registers of Great Britain

One thing that Airfix could tackle a bit better is the rivet detail on the fuselage. real aircraft had positive rivets.

Nicey !

I saw it already 3 times. Very decent.
