This looks really interesting. Although the rib details look to be somewhat heavy, the rest looks very workable! It seems Special Hobby has researched these Lafayette birds using the Windsock publication. I like what I see and may put this one on my wish list. Here I go, yet another 1/32nd kit

Dear Rob

Ditto !!! Here I go again !!! I studied the Sprue shots. Aside from the Different Resin Engine/HeadRest/Rockets/Paint Schemes and Decals it appears the same as the Ni11 which is natural since asisde from the Heavier Engine there was very little different between teh Ni 11 & Ni 16. But to me it is good to have a seperate Kit.

Ive got to hook up with thier Supplier and Bring them here. Yours Mike
