I think the Zero has good proportions to scale pretty well. It looks like they did a good job!

That's gorgeous!

Been following this project and it just looks great inside and out. Doing it the way it should be done. Can't wait to see it fly.

I can't wait to see your P-36 on the tail of that Zeke! That would be a show. Dennis

As in the real conflict the Zeke will probably have the edge, but, absolutely would like to give it a shot.

"The edge" came when OUR guy pointed his toward the ground and the airspeed indicator crept up towards the 400+ MPH area. If "their guy" tried to follow, his wings came off - oh, and during the earlier days of the war their people didn't like to carry a parachute. Dennis

If it's armored like the original Zero, one shot should do it.

Do bear in mind: the P-36/Zero battles at Pearl, the P-36's were using their .30 cal guns, as the 50's had been removed to be installed in the P-40's.

That scale Zero looks outstanding and sounds fantastic.

A friend of mine saw it, did the math, and confirms “3/4 of a Zero is still Zero.”

That's the first time I've heard that. I did know that the P-40s at Clark, most had never had their guns fired at all because they were worried about having enough .50 caliber ammunition. The guns had just been boresighted and that was it. A few had their guns not fire when they went into combat due to faulty solenoids. Dennis

In any case, Jirka's Zero looks like a later model land-based Zero. I am enjoying the level of fit/finish on it, something to aspire to for my projects. The thing even has some kind of pyrotechnic revolver cap guns in the wings.

NO! you can't have it.

This Zero was designed and built from scratch in the Czech Republic. I don't know the exact plans for the design after this one.
