Nice plane but what's with the clothes line stretching from front to back? Is that so the pilot can hang his soiled undies out to dry?

Bah, a lot of planes have that and I don't ever see any laundry handing out to dry.   ;)  Maybe it is for tuning in to Tokyo?   :D

Yes, this is the biggest aircraft update in many years.  I had been checking all day to see if HTC had another toy to show us based on the dates of the last reveals.  I have not been disappointed,

My word! Given the way things have been ticked off my personal bucket list in the last couple of weeks, the Shoki (Tojo) and the Jack will be next, closely followed by the FIAT G.55.

You guys can all thank me later.

When the Shoki does turn up, I'm changing the Aces High theme music to the Ghostbusters theme.

Most excellent.  This will really fill a big historical hole.

Do the wings on the model look too thick to anybody else?  I was looking at photos online and none of them seem to be that, well, balloon like.
