I like that , Ferry - is it going to be a flier ?

No, just a static model Mike. Also in the works is a replica of a Spyker V.2.

I saw the Spyker V.2 there in April 2015 but not any trace of the Berkel W-A. Does that mean they started to work on the W-A just recently?

Thanks...and your turn of course...
