Would you change anything in your design, now that you have a few more years experience behind you? I know when I did one a few years ago I changed to the scale wing section and made them plug in panels and with a prototypical dangly undercarriage. I was always impressed by the scale elevator hinge in your design.

I have seen Bill's posts on here recently so hopefully, he will reply.
I designed the model back in 1978 and at the time it was a "huge" model. Mine was full of scale detail including a full scale "dangly" undercarriage but when I tried to sell the plans I was told by Radio Modeler that I would have to simplify it because it was to "advanced" for anyone to build. I took this as a compliment but had to dumb it down or they would not accept the plan.
I am going through a bit of a nostalgia phase at the moment so thought I would revisit that model (and others). I have not looked at the plan for years so guess I will be horrified by some of the construction as we know so much more now about building large models!
