Up next on the projects list, the Xtrakit SRA-1. I have had an idea for some time about who should have been an obvious customer for this aircraft

Nice aeroplane, but much larger than you think it's going to be!  :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! :)

Indonesia or The Philippines.  All those islands.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

And yes, it is a big bugger
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Thanks to PR_19Kit and NARSES2 for their advice on both building the model and 3D-printed decals :thumbsup:  I have decided to save the set that came with the kit for a rainy day when I'm scratch building a cockpit interior, given that you won't be able to see it with the canopy in the closed position. I know that somewhere in the stash is the Planet resin version, although the exact whereabouts is a bit of a mystery  :-\
