Not Even close, this plane hase a fuse as big as a Gee Bee and flat wings, The pictures do not do it justice and the wheel pants are not correct. I'm thinking Mulligan wheel pants and shortining the landing gear and building them up. The first plane had no canopy and was added after the first few flights. If I want the canopy I can build up the top of the wing as the full scale one but I think I prefer the open cockpit. The dorsal fin could be larger but looking at it I'm thinking probably not higher but wider, but have not decided.
