Ok. My next build. Picked this kit up at the Scottish show a few weeks ago. Love the plane and fancied a go at building one when I saw the new box Revell kit but saw this one at the show, I think the plastic is the same as the new box version.
There are only four of these planes in existence today, three are static exhibits and the fourth is a crashed plane found in the Pacific and undergoing a massive rebuild.
The P-61 was the first US purpose built nightfighter and although late to WWII made a very worthy contribution and was much loved by its crews.
I've yet to start but will keep you posted on my progress.
Cheers M
