Awesome!

I'm glad there are people here who get to do some of the things I can't. It's great to read about pieces of history which are still available to us.

I built a vacuform kit of the Myasishchev M-4 back in the early '80s. It was the Russian equivalent to the B-52 and the three British 'V' bombers (Avro Vulcan, Handley-Page Victor and Vickers Valiant), and to me is one of the best looking early jet bombers.
