Tamiya Schwalbe

There is one thing to be careful of on the Tamiya kit, which I got wrong when I used CA to attach the nose weight which is also part of the nose gear bay. It is supposed to be left loose as it is trapped securely by other parts. It was slightly off where I glued it and that resulted in a small gap on the sides.

The is a Schwalbe replica flying in Germany.
It would make a fine movie prop! I would enjoy watching it in German language as well.
 
I think they built 3 or 4 repros and at least one of them is a 2 seater. They used appropriate power modern jet engines in them, but otherwise they are supposed to be perfect replicas. Kind of like the FW190s that are flying these days.
