My brother, who works for NCAR in Boulder, CO, was tasked last year to assist in the resurrection of a moth-balled B-57 from the desert graveyard in AZ for high-altitude conversion. The B-57 was the US version of the Canberra, licensed & built by Martin. It changed the cockpit to centerline dual, and was used extensively in the Viet Nam theater. The NASA version is available from Paragon Cardmodels, at 1/72 scale, I believe, but does not even come close to the detail being developed here. Looking forward to the release. I'll probably buy this one and the DeHavilland from his site.
