Oh well, but I like models! I haven't started my Fdhs (a beautiful Sierra 
vac and another forgettable one) but I have gathered info on them enough to 
make a decent attempt at building them. I haven't done any bomber yet, and 
the prospect of detailing two of those engine nacelles looks daunting, yet a 
challenge I must take sooner or later.
But what I like the best of the Fdh bombers are the complex undercarriages! 
To do them justice in 1/72 it would be useful to learn how to use silver 
solder.

There was a different arrangement of the struts and the tail and -IIRC- the 
nacelle windows, right?
