Title: Re: Butcherbird Brotherhood Convention Post by: TX-EcoDragon on November 03, 2004, 10:41:36 pm Yeah. . they have original parts too. . I think in the case of that one it was the tailwheel assembly. HeheThey are making these to be sold as pre-fab kits. . . price is pretty good too. . . I'll mention it to a few of the P-51 pilots I know. . ya never know. . they might really like to add a 190 to the hangar, then I'll just need to convince them to let me fly it. . hehe.S!TX-EcoDragonBlack 1TX-Squadron XO
Title: Re: Butcherbird Brotherhood Convention Post by: TX-Kingsnake on November 03, 2004, 11:40:17 pm Don't get me wrong here it is cool, but it is missing the signature long nose and extended tail common to all of the aircraft in the FW line. The long nose and long tail are what gives all the FW aircraft that look that can only be a FW.

The changes they made are that the weapons are not intact, the armor is removed, and the fuel tanks are a little different. Part of the shorter look of it is I think that the weight of the aircraft is less (such that it is sitting on longer legs giving a shorter lengthwise aspect) and perhaps also that the gear are goofy looking. . .dunno.S!TX-EcoDragonBlack 1TX-Squadron XO
