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.
