Default RE: Your thoughts on scale kits

Hard questions! Maybe a little deeper thought then I do, when it comes to making build choices.

I like to add things to make a kit look a little better than what I consider average. I am completely O.K. with the fact that Balsa USA kits are designed to look good and fly well. Although I'd like to build a "Museum Scale" airplane someday, someday may never come as I also see many airplanes which I'd like to build that fly well.

Generally "Museum Scale" airplanes don't get flown much, because of all the effort put into them. I guess it comes down to the fact that I understand changes are made to an offering, for many reasons; price, ease of assembly, flying quality, to name a few. Since these things are a part of the equation, these are things acceptable to me.
