| What else should we expect from the "DD" - Superb. |

| Would be something to see. |

| Ouch! Lots of money, indeed. |

| Anything can be fixed with an unlimited supply of money and slave labor. This doesn't look too bad. A-26, a great plane. |

| About $250k in damage and brused egos....... All fixable. |

| This is a photo from the Guillows website of a laser cut version of a Comet kit. There have been a couple of comments about how impressive it is as if the builder came up with this on her own. Also noted is how precise the angle is for the prop blades and how clean the cut on the hexagons. It's a laser cut kit and this is a standard Comet design. |

| I think the main wheels are from Hangar 9 and I'm not sure about the nose wheel cause the wheel itself is paper with the holes inked in. It looks odd cause the nosewheel is quite large on the real plane. |

| hi david, i was wondering where you got your wheels for this magnificent model? |
| lukebozek1, Comment for image # 22276 | 10 Sep 11 21:48 |
| Really great! I have added 11 stringers in the wings, using the 3/32 technique, sheeting of the fuselage in progress it is decent. Still have some questions on the tail section, but I will post some pics. Anything is possible when slave labor and endless supplies are available. |

| how's the il-2 coming along luke? |
| lukebozek1, Comment for image # 22276 | 10 Sep 11 10:41 |
| I have one half done. The fuselage formers are fairly delicate, but that might be due to age. The plans are sort of less than detailed, but as Dave said, the difficulty is part of the fun. Dave's model above is the pinnacle of workmanship, if I go for a year on this kit I wouldn't come close, but it is a fill-in between builds. I am doing mine based on a Stealth model rebuilt in CA and it looks great. Well, the actual plane looks great. We'll see about mine later. |

| never mind, i see the responce. |

| how difficult is this model, david, i think i might give it a try, i never have built a comet. |
| David Duckett, Comment for image # 22276 | 19 Apr 11 14:41 |
| I liked both this and the Skystreak. They weren't the easiest I've built but that's part of the fun. |

| I got mine for about 25 bucks about two months ago. The box wasn't sealed in plastic so the price was low. I have seen these go much higher. Not quite in the Guillows Mosquito range, but up there like everything else and the price of gas. I really enjoy these Comet kits. |

| Thanks, John. I still have this one. Luke mentioned the fin /rudder design..... |
