A chap called Barry Cole, who I met on-line, found out I was interested in building this model and, out of the blue, last Christmas, two huge plan sheets and a construction CD arrived by post!
It turns out he's a friend of the designer and frequent aero-tow tug pilot.
I can't thank him and Chris enough for all their help and encouragement, without them this model would never have been built.
The model is to be based on the Japanese registered JA 2547 which was originally built in the USA and sold to Germany as D 1163
This is a recent photo of the full-size in Japan.
