My brother got me this for Christmas, I've had the time to put about an hour a day on it, and i Just finished now. I'm not a pro lego builder by any means but this was really really hard. It's in the center.IMG_1196.JPG

The ailerons move when you move the flight colum

The rotary engine moves with the propeller. It's pretty cool my phone won't let me put all the pics I wanted in. Thanks Joe!! :)
 
Nice. Those Lego "vortex generators" on the wing make for nice laminar airflow.

Seems to have a lot of large rivets for a fabric covered airplane.

It's a lego, they are stud peices that lock into one another. Wait you were not serious huh?

My response was something like; "You got me a flaming airplane?!". She's got an interesting sense of humor.

It's a really hard set to build, I wouldn't recommend it for a first timer.
 
Looks awesome! I've had that in a box for a few years

I really need to finally build it!

It's a tough build mainly just because all the small prices that have to fit together and make a large.
