“Volvo. It’s boxy, but it’s good.”

   The interior space is wonderfully used...it doesn’t come off as cavernous or ‘looking for purpose’...the cargo container frames definately go a long way in this. In short, the play value in this just rocks.

I seem to either make fragile models for myself, or small simple toys for the boys to play with. This one managed to get the combination of the two working, which pleases me, although I doubt it’ll become a habit.

   Only small criticism? The landing gear...looks like they could be a bit more substantial, but a very small point.

Noted. See ‘explanation’ in one of my other posts in this thread.

   Great build Allister.

Thanks Gil.
