Started this while waiting for paint and glue to dry on the other models in progress.
This is one of the original flying bananas produced by Piasecki  - a company eventually swallowed up by Boeing.
This is a new kit by LF Models. Very little flash so should not be too onerous to out together.

The walls would have to be very thick though.
Do they do straightjackets in your size?
