For you, good modeler, is this walk down memory lane; an oldie but goodie, a ''public service announcement,'' or educational to just fill in the gaps, any of those are my reasons for eclectic model reviews. This review of the late Entex model company's Dornier Do X is one such review.

This kit was later issued by Revell, Revell Germany, and Revell Germany in a Matchbox box, so it's not as difficult to find as may be expected.

Thanks Jessica, good to know. I haven't test-fitted yet but it looks like a very nice model!

I gotta admit that I am not much for civvie planes; I must struggle against building this WasserVogel in RLM 72/73/65 ;-)
