Thank you. I do have that one. At first I thought that what they show
as a "Diskoplan I"  appears to be the II and their II is another beast
entirely. I thought that Mando had really screwed up the fuselage, but
the photo in their instructions is most definately the shape presented
in the kit.Mando lists Jane's 1958 and The History of Soviet Aircraft
From 1918 by Nemecek as references. Anybody have the Jane's?TIA,TomOn
