There's no doubting the Eight is one true classic. I thought I would take her up as she's been in storage for so long. :wink:

BTW the model is the Aerosim one, which has been completely re-done. Its much better than it used to be. Model & Dynamics have been completely overhauled. Just a shame there's not many paint schemes available for it. :sad:
