Rowan!

The Junkers Ju87C is correct! :-)

The special feature I was thinking of was the retractable wings;





Now, wouldn't that be someting to build!?

Over to you, Rowan!

Hi PolarBear

A Ju 87C was actually on my list for future conversion sets when I let Blueprint go into hibernation... maybe oneday...

Interestingly, the C's jettisonable undercarriage was re-introduced partway through the D series, in an effort to make crash-landings safer; if a Ju 87 flipped over onto it's back, it was almost always fatal for the crew.

Wow! 16 pages!... It's about time to start Jeopardy 3! I'll go and sort out a question and kick off a new thread.

All the best

Rowan
