My sister has raised £10,000+ for charity this year. It brings her total up to over £50,000 in the last 4 years. I want to build a model of this for her but I have no idea what it is. Could one of you folks that build planes identify it for me please?

She doesn't do things by halves mate, last year she cycled across vietnam and the 2 years before she walked across iceland including over an active volcano. In fact it was the same one top gear usa went to. She did a secret art show (the artists names were on the back so nobody knew who the artist was until after the show finished)as well, and got some celebrities to do art work for her to sell. No bad going for someone with multiple sclerosis. She's been interviewed on al jazeera news about as well. She's a tough nut

I did a Google search and the plane looks like a Stearman Biplane!

Bravo for your sister mate! That takes a lot of courage especially with having MS. My sister is sorta lucky in a way, there's 2 types of ms and she has the less nasty version (progressive or relapsing). She still has relapses but much less chance of ending up in a wheelchair. I'm proud of her but wont tell her cos of how it affects the mind as well as the body. For her job she drives an ambulance and is doing her full paramedic training soon

Your sister sounds like a real goer mate! Yeah mate, she's pretty fearless. When she was little she wanted me to jump over her on my skateboard, but she lay length ways with her head at the landing side. When i asked her why she said it was so i would try harder, lol
