Re: Fun stuff goes here.

Re: building a two piece fusalage

For true scale you would need a three piece fuselage as per the full size Lancaster.
I have actually seen a Lincoln - a slightly larger Lanc, overshoot on landing and the fuselage broke into three pieces .

If anyone is going to make a face mask out of an old bra, make sure you use the left cup.

You don’t want to go out looking like a right tit.
