Here is another little story behind this very model that was related to me-
He used to keep the model beside his bunk bed,one day there was a big inspection in the nissan hut,you know the flap everything was tidied up ready for the big day,anyway when it arrived the contingent was led by a very senior high ranking official,he prodded and poked,opened up cupboards and felt for dust,then he stopped in front of my fathers cabinet and spotted the tiny model,picked it up carefully and inspected it with a big grin all over his face,without further ado he just said 'well done airman' in a broad American acent and carried on down the line of bunks with the inspection.
