Default Gloster E28/39

Despite having this jet for quite some time now, this was the first time I had actually had it all together.
It was designed and built by a very prolific British modeler by the name of Steve Rickett. He is a master at light weight balsa and ply construction. I am not sure what the model weighs but can tell you that it flew and flew well with just a P-120.
Pretty much all of it is scratch built, and superbly detailed. It's amazing to see real craftsmanship like this up close and personal.

Is this what you are bringing to CAJets now that the other planes are sold?

Hey Tony,
Not sure what I am going to bring, to be honest I was thinking of just traveling light this time.
