The parts sheet is also included. There's only 4 sheets of printwood in the actual kit. |

A closer look. They are having a 30% off sale so the plans and shipping were $34.20. The wingspan is 27 and 15/16" and the length is 23 and 1/2". Plans are available in smaller and larger versions. |

| It will be interesting to see them side by side as they are in the same scale. The Mossie is quite a bit larger. |

| An interesting note is that a famous Mossie Ace (can't remember his name, but he was a leading British nightfighter pilot) was brought down by a German ace flying an Fw 190A-?. A number of years ago I read an article about them meeting after the war. Quite feat for the German since so few Mossies were brought down. |

| I'll be building it in the same 3/4 scale (1/16) as the Mossie and all the other recent acquisitions. Wingspan is about 27 1/2". The Guillows kit is supposed to be the same scale but isn't. The wheels on the Guillows kit are the same 1/34" standard wheels they're so fond of but on these plans they are 2". The canopy here is also much different. I've ordered a 1/48 scale Tamiya kit for reference but have no idea when this will actually come up for build. The FW-190 is one of my favorite planes and the House of Balsa version already in my hanger is not true scale so this will be built:-) |
