That IS an uncanny resemblance! "Good night Mrs. Calabash, wherever you are."

That's the airplane (de Havilland Comet) that discovered metal fatigue It was the first operational jet passenger plane as I understand it. But when its airframe issues began happening, Boeing's 707 took over leadership in the market. There's a C-130 version that has a schnoz almost as ugly as that. It's called Combat Talon. (MC-130).

That's very ugly, but IMO possibly the most butt-ugly aircraft ever produced was the (German) Dornier "Anteater".

Looks great as usual, I see she is up for sale on eBay. I am impressed that you are able to assemble the rocket they apply the sanding sealer and sand everything nice and smooth.

Thanks!
ONE of them is up for sale. I'll keep the other. When I do a build thread I often build (2) models at once--especially when it's a complex one like this was.
