Default RE: Realistic Expectations to build a big P47...

Hi Craig, Well the outline is pretty darn good on the Meister Jug...the thing that turns some folks off is that it has a flat bottom airfoil...but that is also what makes it fly so darn good too! Also, due to the flat bottom wing, you are pretty much limited to the CJM retracts, and they aren't all that scale either. However, unless you're a P-47 expert, seeing a well built and finished model on the ground you would never know though as it presents itself very, very well. And also what I was also alluding to was the fact that it has no details such as panel lines molded in as in a Yellow glass kit. What ever detail you choose to do, is what it will have. I prefer it that way though, I've never really seen a glass fuse model with details built in that I really like anyway, with the exception of maybe FiberClassics...maybe?
