Spotted this over on the Planetalk.net forum but was so impressed I thought it worth sharing here.
A you tube video of a large scale model (or perhaps more accurately – replica) of a Handley Page Halifax.
Take a look for yourself and be amazed.

Wow! Quite a project, built over three years and I bet a lot of hours crammed into those three years.
Thanks, Alex

Amazing! Obviously, a real labor of love for him.
If I were recently retired and looking to royally p*ss off the wife with a 20ft model filling the basement and excess noise from 4 replica radials, this is
exactly the type of project I'd endeavour to create.
