Keith OldfieldWoW, I've just found out about the XP-55 when I was looking over what a guy on scalemates was selling.
I just happened to look on scalemates again to delete a wishlist item for canopy mask as the kit has some when I saw your project.
Would you please share your details and photos about this British version?
Talking to all my modelling buddies we didn't really know about the XP-55.
Regards Keith

Kevin JohnsonI put ASH radar on the nose and still deciding what scheme I want to use. I was settling either on PRU Blue or Gray and Green up and black under, although I was also considering a prototype with trainer yellow under.

Kevin JohnsonI've watched a few sim videos of this aircraft; it handles well although it's not exactly a dogfighter. It would have made a fairly lethal night fighter, especially with a Merlin.

Kevin JohnsonI promise to show photos of what I've done so far once I take them. The model has been a shelf queen almost twenty years and I'd like to see it done.
