Jay DubyaI really like your piece here Stephen, but I'm really sorry that I feel obliged to point out a small mistake -

Peter HardyHa! Took me three minutes to find it! Call me slow!
Steve, I have never even heard of this Henschel. Very interesting ship, I will read up on it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Nice build too! Well done and thanks!

Stephen YoungHa! Rookie mistake! Yep they are reversed which points to inattentiveness on my part and the odd engineering on ESCI's part (one of many that seems typical for ESCI kits) in that its even possible to accomplish that. Will have to fix it. Thanks!

Guy RumpApart from the wheels the wrong way around, an excellent model Stephen. I admit that if JW hadn't pointed it out I wouldn't have realised.

Peter HardySteve, you are only human. Even I made a mistake once.
Guy, at least you could have said it took you three and a half minutes!

Stephen YoungOk back from the hanger with the main gear corrected! Thanks for the correction and thank goodness for the low shear strength of CA glue.

@Peter: I call my missus the long suffering, I could never get away with calling her a mistake! Ha ha
