Walked into Sheldon's today and got "goose bumps" when I looked up to see hanging from the ceiling a production model (not prototype) of the new World "GS" Jap ZERO.
Beautiful glass fuse and cowl with lines and rivet detail. Has built in retracts but I don't know if they have been improved.
Has flaps but their not "split", I think ZERO's had split flaps?
The only thing is they still have that (no offense Mickey) "Mickey Mouse" tail wheel on it like the P-51.

I'll take some pictures of it tomorrow but still don't know how to post them on RCU.
