Which Grasshopper? In WW2 most folks used the term grasshopper for any
liason plane, especially the military versions of lightplanes.  A few
used the term ONLY for the L-4.

Read a review somewhere. I think it's accurate but challenging and a bit
simplified in some areas for such a large scale.

I saw a picture of one being transported on a Dragon Wagon with the wings
removed and folded back. Now that would be a cool dio.
