As ever, thanks, Jamo.

I always realised that the tail fin of the 184 was big, but that last photo took even me by surprise!

Best wishes

Thanks James for the excellent photos, I am also impressed with the size of the fin, its massive.

Some time in March I intend to start a major scratch build project that will incorporate a Seafolder.
Only problem is the scale, which will be 1/350 so your pictures have shown me how difficult it is going to be.
I have just sourced some brass shim that will hopefully allow me to produce the tail fin
