    Stunning model and particularly the unique color scheme, the epitome of a "clean" Build. Superb work!

Just beautiful. And in the highly unusual livery, the more attractive it is!

It's neat to see these Warbirds in post war markings as they did "Soldier on" for many years in many nations after the war.  Very nicely executed model with an eye catching scheme.  Not the prettiest airplane Dehavilland made, but a neat one none the less.
