Typhoons destroyed the first two Me 210s over the British Isles. Maximum speed of 417 MPH at 20,000 feet was obtained in 7.6 minutes. Its true element was with eight 3” rockets and four 20mm cannon. Review: Balsa plane - Husband loves it. I have bought several of these and all have been good value for money,the instructions are great and once completed very stable. Review: Shoddy kit - I have done other models by Guillows and they were quite enjoyable to do. Unfortunately the Typhoon is a shoddy kit, I have had to cut all the pieces out manually and as for having to cut all the slots for the stringer as well is not my idea of fun. All in all a shoddy kit. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 14 years.
