Thanks a lot for the nice Review and the time you spend for!
To be honest - never heard before about this a/c.

Oh wow - I thought this was a reissue of the old LTD kit, I'm pleasantly surprised to see that it is not. I have a strange affliction for the Boomerang and I'll have to grab one!

Great review Jessie, it's just such a tough looking little aircraft. I will need to track down one of these
REISSUE kits to get the updated parts and coloured instructions. It definitely needs to be added to my little
bit of Boomerang madness !
Are you going to be building this one soon?
Cheers, D

I regret that since we moved I haven't had a proper building space. It's frustrating...

Also violates the Geneva convention and most human rights agreements. This needs to be rectified immediately, if not sooner!
