Lovely little build Mark - what strength microscope did you use to find the parts? Looks like a nice interlude from Bissy. And now from one extreme to the other - here are some pics of the Antoinette I worked on a few years ago . This baby had a 8metre wingspan!!! We built about eight different aircraft of the same size and era for a Casino

Thanks for the comments & K. I couldn't find any sugar cubes or a ruler, so I've resorted to the other standard British unit of measure. The tea bag ! Attachments:
