    Nice plane... Which group build will this be a part of David?

    In the realm of dog fighting, if it's a fair fight... you did something wrong.

    Now that's strange seeing a Ju-86 with British roundels! Had no idea they were ever operated by the Allies. You learn something new every day. Thats a nice kit for it's age by the way, I made it in early Luftwaffe colors a few years ago. It will be interesting how you deal with the engine change.
