she was built by trond hammerstad from norway and is the only person in the world to have built this model from the airworld modelbau kit at the moment ! and what an amazing model it is - lol,

The colour scheme is from an F2A, stationed in Germany (RAF Gutersloh) in late 1960s.
Its not easy to estimate the building hours, but 3-400 hours I guess. (it was a winter build 2011/2012, the maiden flight was may 2012)
All scale details are hand made after studying lots of pictures and books from the full size eel,
