For those that love the P-51 I just had to post this link.

I noted that one commentator on the P-51 said the following:
"Mr Park claims this was the "most beautiful of the WWII fighters". But look at the aeroplane again, is it not descended directly from the iconic Supermarine Spitfire, itself regarded by so many as the most beautiful of its kind ever made? This model is superb and deserves its place on display. Was not the Mustang, designed at the request of the British, to enter the war in late 1943 powered by the (British) Rolls Royce Merlin engine?"
Ignorance has a cure, unlike stupid which is eventually fatal. ;) Unfortunately, they are not taking further comments, so this series of errors cannot be corrected.
My regards,

Bah.. big fat Ami planes and smurfy Brit planes...wimpy Italian planes, origami Japanese planes, and stubby Russky planes..
Who needs those when you can have the elegant 109s and 190s?

One of the photos looks like he is working on an F4U... Very cool, wish I had the talent.

:O
It probably costs as much as the real thing :old:
I have never seen any model airplane made that well before.

Very impressive work. :aok
