As we're talking about the re-issue of this beast as a Dambuster variant (only twice the price of the 'Wingnut' one!) I've been persuaded to post some pics of my part-built original partwork of, obstensibly, PA474 of the BBMF
I was back-dating mine to one of the first three in service that flew with 47 Squadron, adding the ventral dustbin and, to show the interior, 'cutaway' with the starboard side covered in acetate. Another project I REALLY should get back to!

This is the thing overall, with 30cm rule to gauge size
