Hi SD - I like the big trumpeter - it has good and 'less good' things listed below -.As to nose weight, the backdate parts are resin so the engine / boom fronts are heavy'ish - like I won't need to add too much weight in her nose - but some will be needed.
Good: the subject, fit, clear parts, surface detailing - engines are great but not doing them as the nacelles are solid
Less good: Punch Marks,,,,,

rubber tyres, wing dihedral is dropping, I will have to correct it
Morris' ham fisted attempt at grafting surgery was a definite augering in
Anyway, I got my hands on some spare boom sprues/frets - back up and re-try
