After 23 years of building, got mine first jet. It came damaged from heavy landing but it was just composite repair so light fix and repainted in Yugoslav Airforce livery from 1960s. Nice part ist that plane was parked at LDRI airport and as kid i was hanging around it. Also found that my university profesor was flying it during his airforce careere and did Instrumental rating.

I can tell you after Ziroli Hellcat, ME 109, DO335 in 1:5 scale, and now FW 190 IN 1:4,5, this jet is like a daily flyer. some bad habit in design was resloved and now it`s 2 kilos lighter than ARF, and some "pumping" at low speed is resolved with CG shift.
