Ship is 1/350 so those 1/700 Swordfish would actually look a little odd :)

Not a huge amount of stuff out there in 1/200. There are some at http://www.shapeways.com/model/15563...FeLm7Aod7wcAuQ

That is big, thought maybe it was the old Lindbergh model.

With the main deck in place, I am now waiting for the wooden deck to arrive which I hope tomorrow or Friday.

There is a guy selling all the parts in 1:100, but that would cost a furtune. The hull alone is 289,- EURO

Nice, but if I was going to go that far I'd want to take it all the way to 1/72. Park it alongside your u-boat. :D
