I acquired one of these several years back as a freebee and wound up trading it off. Little did I know that this kit is nearly as rare as hens teeth and didn't see it again for nearly fifteen years! Naturally I snatched it up upon seeing it available from a real gentleman, the owner and operator of RarePlane Detective!

It would have been more clever if I kept the first one! I probably would have had I known that Huma's molds for the Fl 282 B-0 & B-2 were damaged and so no more are being produced in 1:72! At least RS Models makes one now though.

Well, I have both in my stash and the RS model is the better one for sure. On the other hand the Huma kit is a collectors item and very hard to get because of the lost moulds. I think that I will build the RS one and leave the Huma untouched.
