 I STILL love it, and I'm wondering if I should build my Nova vacform 141 as a 'probed' version now.

I've had the kit for ages, maybe 40 yrs, and I keep on looking at it, but it'll be a HUGE job carving out the proper bits out that mountain of sheet plastic. :(
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! :)

Regards
Kit

If you're willing to work in 1/200th, save yourself the worry and pick up the Dragon/Cyber Hobby one, it goes together well.
