Here are some pictures of a Martin Baker MB 5 replica. The plane is undergoing testing and certification and should be flying one of these days.

I couldn't get the whole plane in a single shot as it was sitting between two rows of hangars, gotta get a fisheye lens one of these days.

Very nice. Pretty sure I've got a kit of that stashed somewhere at home. :D

On paper it's a beautiful design and I'd love to see it airborne.

Great pics of a very cool machine. :cool

I`m pretty sure this is one of those 3/5th`s type replica thingys though, as the real thing was a lot bigger than that. Also armed with canon and not those `pea shooters`.

I don't think it's that flimsy, a lot of P-51 structural parts were used in it's construction.
