That'd be perfect for a planned Pacific beachlanding dio I'm hoping to make next year (currently, FY2003 for me will be a "model-less" year - will focus procurement funds for a new PC)

Squadron's January flyer has it listed for $106.46, and according to their order form, orders over $100 have free shipping (US only), Canada shipping would be $15, foreign surface would be 30% and foreign airmail is 50% (of order total or actual freight whichever is less). Item #VE1869, hope this helps the North American comsumers.
