Building the nose from vacuum foamed unobtanium would add negative mass and thus push the CoG towards the tail.

Personally I like an aircraft with a long nose and all the other gubbins clustered at the back.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.

That sounds remarkably as it's asking for a reply from a Monty Python film  :rolleyes:

I know it's been over 9 years since anything happened on this job, but I just came across it in my Projects List here on my laptop, so I looked up this build thread again.

As the bits are still at my old house, and I know exactly where too, I'll collect them on the next trip and re-start work on it.

Starting with a BIG saw to cut the nose off and straighten it out!  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Yeah, that's about what I'd need to get through 9 year old Milliput.  ;D
