    Is it just me or do the cockpit windows look out of scale on this aircraft?
    Something about the lines just aren't right.

    Compare with these:
    http://www.b25.net/b25sln.html#anchor76993
    http://www.b25.net/b25airforce.html#anchor34685
    and see if you agree

    The depth of the cockpit frame to the fuselage is in the ratio of about 3:1 in the screenies above, but in the photos it's closer to 4:1. Makes the payware fuselage seem skinnier and more stremalined than it shold be to my eye. Can't believe nobody noticed this before it was released, or is it just me?

    this streches it a little bit

    Ah that could be it. Great repaint by the way - I spent so long trying to think why it didn't `look` right I forgot to admire the paint!
