    @Hpaccelli im just giving my opinion, im just judging on what i think is good looking. Its not going to be a historically acurate score.

    @Mobius1Cyka you ever seen the width of the me-109's wings? I'm sorry to be that guy but this is perfectly proportional if compared to existing aircraft.

    @Hpaccelli the wings are a bit small in their width (i think its width, i get confused) and are too far apart, the transition betwen fuselage and engine is too suden, rear stabilizers are too small for the size of the fuselage and the very end of the fuselage is wierd looking imo. But i really like the bomb droping mechanism.

    I like the build a lot! The working bomb trapeze is a nice touch!

    I too have a plane called the Cormorant, this plane fits it’s name better than mine

    @Hpaccelli yup! It’s a part that people
    Usually forget to put on but it adds a lot of value to your build when used. Again, nice work!

    @Mustang51 Thanks mate! Discovered the bomb trapese was a thing today while watching a video about the Ju-87 Stuka.
